[RC] Web bugs and head-in-sand - Diane Trefethen

What would an animal organization possibly have to gain by sending you bugs and causing you a few hours headache?

1) More names to send their propaganda to. Whether you or anyone else thinks the org is a good guy or a bad guy, sending web bugs is definitely underhanded since they don't announce they are doing it. Falls in the category of "The end justifies the means".


2) Once your email address is verified as real, IT IS WORTH MONEY! It can be sold to businesses that collect valid email addresses and who then in turn sell those lists to whomever will pay for them... like spammers for instance.

Is it time for John to drop the hammer on this thread yet? :)
