a decline in spam?

it looks like the americans have caught one of the world's most wanted terrorists (imo anyway).

US prosecutors said they captured on Wednesday a nefarious Internet marketer responsible for so much junk email they called him "Spam King".
this guy spammed 10's of millions of email addresses and they want to seize a mere $773,000? i know that spammers only make very small percentage on their efforts. but take 10's of millions and take a 0.1 percentage of that on an item that sells for $10... that's a lot more than $700,000!

either way, the longer this guy stays in prison, the better for all of us.

update: ha, that was wishful thinking... no decline in spam. oh damn
