Clearing Spam Out of My Blog
Every morning I clear out the spam from this blog. As none of it gets through the spam filter used by WordPress, I do wonder why they bother.
I suspect it must be automatic. But even if it is is, surely programmers have better things to do than create spam. One today, judging by the e-mail address was probably racist, so that in itself says a lot.
But as none gets through, it is a very pointless exercise. It doesn’t even annoy me much, as it takes just two clicks to consign it all to cyber-oblivion.
I suspect my act of deleting them too, is noted by WordPress, who add the sender to their banned list. I won’t say the spammers can’t win, but their chances are getting slimmer by the day. Which is all very good!
