>> Nearly anything public is bombarded with spam.
The death throes of a doomed industry. Be it steel, horseshoes or advertisements, as profit margins drop production rates will increase to compensate. Then as the machine is running as fast an as efficiently as it ever has, suddenly the margin becomes zero and there isn't any more room to optimize. The entire industry suddenly stops overnight. I await that day.
- gibolt 4y agoThat is a slightly different issue. This would be like counterfeit steel being sold as of it were the real thing. Or direct-to-consumer horseshoes that will never arrive. Much of this spam is actively out to trick you, as opposed to legitimate players who have no margin left to give.
- jollyllama 4y agoSpam's been a huge industry for twenty years. Those are some long death throes.
- sandworm101 4y agoThanks. Yet another thing I hate about my work machine: window edge spellcheck. It autocorrects without asking me. So I don't notice that I have misspelled something. It just gets corrected to some other word.
