McColo Corp, an internet service provider that has been confirmed to be the provider of choice to a rogue's gallery of unsavory clients, has been cut off by its backbone providers, cutting the world's total volume of spam by as much as 75%. Sadly, these people will undoubtedly be able to find other service eventually. But enjoy the respite while it lasts.

This is great news. I hope other service providers, and also national and international legislators all around the world, have enough goodwill to follow suite and do more to stop spammers.
Nobody needs spam, not even those morons trusting spam and buying the rubbish advertised there. Spammers themselves are simply criminals who should be punished and stopped from continuing their crimes.
