oh and also FUSSUP is a mythical beast. Whatever measure the good guys take the criminals will adapt to. Close relays? They use web proxies. Close proxies, they create botnets. One of the long-standing issues initially was that far too many people dismissed spammers as 'stupid' and 'kids in their parent's  basement'. They are organized criminal gangs, make no mistake. They will fuck you up physically, and they are to be feared.
