In other words, widespread implementation of LMAP (which would be a good
thing) would lead to more compromised machines (which would be a bad
thing) ;-)
Tough sh*t for them.
By the same argument, I shouldn't put locks or an alarm in my house,
because that encourages thieves to go after my neighbour, instead of
me.
Such arguments are ridiculous, and either originate from a
misunderstanding of the security space, or a hidden agenda to prevent
*any* anti-spam measures from being implemented.
I believe that Fridrik was pointing out a simple fact - any effective
anti-spam solutions would force spammers to seek other venues, including
the increased use of hijacked computers.
