One really has to wonder WTF kind of world we live in when spammers try to spam blogs (like say...this pathetic little site).  I hate to say it but it's really starting to get obvious that...anonymity on the web is kind of a bad thing.  Or perhaps we need a secondary web...one that (again) lacks anonymity.  Then spammers and hackers would be forced out.  Of course, finding a way to fix all the vulnerabilities on the servers and in various OS' would do much the same thing.
