Bullshit:  It matters a lot.  Their idea may have "successfully" 
inconvenienced a couple of spammers but IMO it's questionable who 
they blasted the worst:  spammers or innocent parties.  To think 
that they may have abolished any spammers is not only myopic, 
it's ignorant and stupid:  The spammers and their sites will 
simply reappear elsewhere and nothing will/would have changed 
spamwise.

> No matter if Bluefrog was good or bad:

Stupid comment.  Unthinking comment.  Trolling comment.  It 
matters a lot fo law abiding, scrupulous people with ethics and 
right on their side.

they had a successful idea how to

No, it wasn't successful.  Temporary only.  And wasted effort; 
they believed in themselves so highly that they're already borked 
out of business.


> kick spammers out of business,

No, it simply sent them (very few) elsewhere to regroup, a 
momentary blip on most good spammer's screens of operation.

and this idea should be carried on by someone

No, it shouldn't.  Your and others like you, are myopic, as 
already mentioned, and completely ignores the "collateral" damage 
which is now so widely known.  In the end analysis, should it be 
able to complete, their true colors will very likely come to 
light.  So far there is nothing giving any credibility to 
anything they have done or said that indicates a desirable 
operation.

LOL!  You mean, like the "spam mafia" is doing right now?  Every 
day?  Every second, even?  They're attacking THOUSANDS, probably 
more, e-mail providers constantly!!

If you and your'n are so sure you're so right, go borrow some 
money and set up your own:  Let's see how it's supposed to be 
done!  Until then, you and others like you have nothing worthwhil 
to say to a thinking person who values honesty and integrity, not 
to mention ethics and scruples.

</rant>.  I've had my say; I'm done now.
