A fluffy piece but not one devoid of interesting information, at least for me - I found the reminder of events over the last three years useful to putting the numbers in context.
The most egregious misuse of numbers lies in the claim [t]he geographic center of spammed accounts has also shifted from Russia to Saudi Arabia, which is justified by the fact that Saudi Arabia (population of around 25 million) has a spam rate of 82.2% against Russia's (pop. c. 140m) spam rate of 79.4%. It's been a while since I've seen such extreme analytical incompetence from a journalist.
