mp_en_viaje: then one got out of the dozen-cloud of rtl-*, prosieben / etc and discovered past #50 or so it's mostly derpy sports / other specialist channels all 20-30 airing the same "genius" late night cable marketing (exact same, why the fuck do you need multiple channels for same bs ? cuz it's spam, true and proper), and then tons of arabic channels which either put out cheap cartoons (qatar) or else broken transmission or w/e, and then past #100 it turne

mircea_popescu: a spam trap with 0 spams in it is not much of a trap hm ?

asciilifeform: meanwhile, in olds, asciilifeform's 'xor 2 small numbers'+'say fg baud' spam filter seems to be 100% effective (a 1st?!) -- 0 spams in trap since installed ( legit comments , not many , but work -- tho there were never many ) ☟︎

BingoBoingo: Back when the US read, "Hegelian" groups sprouted up in US cities advocating a bunch of stuff that now gets labeled Marxist, because the Spam was targeted to their level

mircea_popescu: it doesn't work for "RodneyOnern" earlier today and it didn't work for "Karl Marx" earlier this century. the irrelevant circumstance that some blogs publish spam and some morons became michael jackson fans or roosh v or karl marx or dale carnegie fans/true believers/whatever is exactly as the word says : irrelevant.

BingoBoingo: Anyways, the ideological progenitors of Marxism are the Britshits in parliament setting the stage for Marx's spam attacks to work. Marx himself pretty much a non-entity beyond folks finding the spread of his spam reason to use his name as a label.

spyked: asciilifeform, I applied mircea_popescu's pill to block spam-linkers. pl0x to set referrer to http://thetarpit.org or http://lucian.mogosanu.ro

BingoBoingo: Mocky: That's about 27% of Qntra spam as measured by eyeballs

Mocky: in other news, I got my first ru spam blog comment разработка сайтов

spyked: apologies for the feedbot join-part spam. the latest outage has helped me discover a subtle bug in pm message delivery; feedbot checks whether a nick is online using the ison irc command, and it didn't handle the corner case when the ison response is empty.

BingoBoingo: I promise, all I did was kill the links. Yes its spam, but lulzy.

mircea_popescu: meanwhile in lulz : trilema gets referral spam from "esif22.zcodesys.hop.clickbank.net" ; the unpacking is : https://zcodesystem.com/affiliates.html (some "betting" scam) is being pushed via clickbank (principal affiliate clearhinghouse) by some guy whose code is esif22. the idea is that if (naive) webmaster clicks (or publishes his referrer list for others to click) the clickbank item will count a click "sent by" this esif22

BingoBoingo: I've encountered quite a bit of it in my spam traps as well as searching for life various all comers spam traps.

BingoBoingo: FWIW the email spam folder has a lot of spam with attachments today. Usual month ~0 of these

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there are public fools, who spam impotently; and there are other folx, whose existence, however wretched/inca-besotten, is silent . i see the latter as less loathesome. this may be an ideological diff, i have nfi.

asciilifeform: what precisely is 'shy withdrawing' about spam-'conference'-circuit butterflies ?

mircea_popescu: meanwhile talking of spam : http://archive.vn/oMEya ("Julia Sowells/534 Posts Julia Sowells has been a technology and security professional.

BingoBoingo: In other news... amazing how comment spam shifted from viagra to... http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/LvP1y/?raw=true

mircea_popescu: (i did have to fish it out of spam, not right off sure what combination of what exactly triggered it, but anyway)

mircea_popescu: and it so happens that god wank scores right there with "commercial communication" aka spam (another trope of fiction) on the scale of republican appreciation of fiction.

asciilifeform: i have heard they're tryin' to edge into the spam dc market

asciilifeform: diana_coman: interesting, all but 1 seem to be garbage from the switch ; and the remaining 1 seems to be a ... voip spam attempt

spyked: this is a good point tho: the spam-on-first-subscription behaviour sounds like bug and I'll add in the hopper for fixing.

spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-08#1879046 <-- hm. feedbot sends rss entries that aren't previously in the db, so it'll spam on the first !1subscribe. so in this case it's better to send me a list of the feeds and I'll add them manually. ☝︎

asciilifeform: ( spam did not see it fit to mention what, precisely, happens if you sell it for 5cents... lightning strikes ? )

asciilifeform: meanwhile in spam traps : 'usd coin! buy and sell for $1.00, where supported'

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo it's spam. you can tell because it shows up on abandoned "blogs" that've meanwhile been added to the spamchurn etc.

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I'm having trouble telling if Spam (my email filter is rather convinced) or earnest solicitation

BingoBoingo: In rather convincing spam http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/ISbIF/?raw=true

mircea_popescu: mkay. and the idea was to put the ip or w/e of the "subscriber" into the downloads so that if they turn up on torrents hbo lawyers know what soccer mom to send abusive readers' digest spam to ?

asciilifeform: meanwhile, in spam trap, http://bitcoinrabbithole.org/writings << links to heathens ~and~ mircea_popescu , which is atypical

asciilifeform: meanwhile, from the spam lint traps, https://www.johndcook.com/blog

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i suspect roughly same dynamic as old-style spam. i.e. 'i heard others are doin' it, there gotta be moneys in it, so i'ma buy a webcam and interactivefetish kit'

mircea_popescu: pardon the spam ; i bothered because honestly, this is paradigmatic. i dunno any pantsuits ACTUALLY exist ; but i know for sure there's millions of these rachel-hos.

asciilifeform: ... from spam log ?

BingoBoingo: The more I look into Banksy the more spam filters he hits

mircea_popescu: well yes, but security theatre is specifically there to give some spam fliers the appearance of a loftiness they do not merit.

jurov: but at least gmail needs to be told this is not spam.

lobbes: btw, if you end up needing it I have a guide out on how to configure apache to handle bot spam directed at your blog >> http://blog.lobbesblog.com/2018/07/arming-your-arm64-rockchip-gentoo-against-the-hordes-of-mindless-bots/

asciilifeform: and yea, makes sense, $spec is for ~client~, deliberately does not detail how spam control, i presume it's an in-house matter.

asciilifeform: if you set your hello-version to 99999, they stop, if <=70001 -- they spam it

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform thinking about it, the discussed problem re spam, http://trilema.com/2015/you-know-what-gets-no-airplay-unflattering-truth/#selection-931.0-931.721 is exactly borne of the same fount that gave us "transsexuals", yes.

asciilifeform: the aolization of the net created this illusion; is what gave us spam, 'marketing', pestilential ads

asciilifeform: i've ended up on the spam lists, they push errything from dead-tree 'how-to'-s (because, i suppose, if chump is this dumb, he is prolly on aol, and can't download scans, and will ~pay~ for xerox-of-xerox...) , to faux bananistani 'passports', to weirdo sect/christ-besotted crapolade

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sounds , to my untrained eye at least, like spam from the site itself

BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> what boggles my mind is that they dun see the plain fact that if yer response to 'oh noez, spam' is to sit down and write missive, you're ddosable with 1 finger << Pretty good measure of social placement. Do you need to filter all comers, or can you reply to spam without surrendering all the time.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform whats the spam discussion about ?

asciilifeform: what boggles my mind is that they dun see the plain fact that if yer response to 'oh noez, spam' is to sit down and write missive, you're ddosable with 1 finger

asciilifeform: older folx laugh off spam silently

asciilifeform: funnily also, there's still 0 spam in #asciilifeform , i think they took snapshot of whom-to-spam 1ce and never refreshed

asciilifeform: btw, the spam folx finally did their homework, loox like, and copied the algo that was used to murder usenet,

mircea_popescu: "but mp, i know who you or mocky are, i don't know these random names!" "so ?" "so the random names are spam" "congratulations of having a wot. now try without."

asciilifeform: ~0 to do with spam in the usual sense.

a111: Logged on 2018-09-17 20:44 diana_coman: the question+kick&ban sounds good to me - kicking "silent" aka "I'm part of it because I hang about in here doing nothing" is even needed by now, I'd say; I can also see very well its usefulness for other channels; while atm #eulora tolerates the allah-spam, it could certainly do without it especially at less-quiet times

Mocky: allah-spam in #eulora seemed mere annoyance until I noticed how it inserts pages of spam with log search results.

mircea_popescu: lol did you contribute a few boxes to the internet's efforts to spam itslef ?

mircea_popescu: looks like i clicked "spam" 11 times this month.

mircea_popescu: hanbot how many items did you have to call spam/ham since running it ?

mircea_popescu: mpwp dun have much problem with spam anyways.

asciilifeform: i like the idea of eternal 0effort spam genocide tho.

mircea_popescu: anyway, back to the +r thing... we did get the no j/p spam part. sadly the way this shit works leaves no optimal choice, gotta pick this-or-that. is the idea we... i picked the wrong set ?

mircea_popescu: EXACTLY like shitty cellphone service, "hey, you just placed a call, we'll send spam sms 10 minutes later, so you think it's the op and look"

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the new biosen are lulzy also, often they have tcp stack nao, and read file system , and even show spam in the setup

asciilifeform: interestingly, #asciilifeform still spam-free despite no +r , evidently the spam folx are using a hardcoded list of chans that dun include it yet

mircea_popescu: they actually patched their ircd to sed 's/spam//'

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform connection's been shit, i suspect they're "fighting spam"

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-10#1840822 << this sorta thing ~increases~ spam, creates suddenly 'valuable' market in aged accts ☝︎

mircea_popescu apologizes for teh incoming spam.

BingoBoingo: * neo-cool21 has quit (Killed (Unit193 (Spam is not permitted on freenode.)) << Oh the IRC-Cops have a filter nao?

Mocky: sounds like spam vector

asciilifeform: and largely associated with spam in my head, being the only place i ever encountered said strings.

mircea_popescu: not really. thing is used by aspiring spam "companies" the world over to "build history" so they can become candidates for money laundering "acquisitions" later on.

asciilifeform: holyfuq what is this, scraped from bottom of spam trap ?

lobbes: </spam>

lobbes: incoming deed spam.. pardon me:

mircea_popescu: ah, crapolade trying to spam. shouldn't really bring mp-wp down afaik.

asciilifeform: lulzy spam. 'would require code-sharing platforms to monitor all content that users upload for potential copyright infringement' etc.
