- vintermann 5y agoYeah, but they don't bother checking for nofollow attributes. Not spamming people who enforce nofollow attributes would just encourage more people to adopt it, which the spammer doesn't want. Either way, the spammer rarely spams his own thing. They spam what someone else pays them to spam, and don't care if it actually works as long as their customer believes it works (much like legal advertising).
- tinus_hn 5y agoIn other news, even if you block spam spammers still keep sending it, because it’s cheaper to not care. Does that mean we should not block spam?
