There are times when we all need some clarification on what spam really is. We all get it but seldom do we hear it defined. Spam is very important to the success of the entrepreneur in a few important ways. Let’s define and look at it more carefully, taking into account the old saying “there is a sucker born every minute”.

What is spam?

Spam is the garbage email that we all get daily from either get rich quick sites or porn sites. You will rarely get spam under any other subject. You know you are in receipt of a spam email if you get information that you didn’t specifically request. You know you are a sucker (the one quoted above) if you decide to buy from a spammer.

How can we stop spam?

Why would we want to? Read on…

The hidden secret about spam that could save you thousands of dollars.

We all need to treat spam as a news service. What do I mean by this you ask? I get about 20 spam messages a day on average and consider it a free news service of businesses to stay away from. In other words, when you get a spam message be sure to “insert” a subject at the top of the message that says “Another business that is a scam or is going bankrupt”. The first part of the subject is very clear and covers most of the spam you will get. The other half is very important.

Many companies on the net right now are going bankrupt, in fact this number is in the tens of thousands. You can bet 100% that if you get a message from a company that is trying to sell you something that seems legitimate they are trying to keep from going out of business. You can purchase their wares but the odds are they will use your money to pay their creditors or simply pocket it without sending you a thing.

Most people would probably pay for such a service that provided them with updates on business scams and companies that are going under. But, it’s free for us all. As a matter of fact, I recently worked on a software problem with one of Microsoft’s tech support people. This guy was one of the core database programmers that you just don’t see everyday on the street. During our work we had a short break while the program was compiling so I asked him how long he worked for the largest company in the world. He told me, just over two years.

Then it hit me, I asked him how Microsoft blocked spam. I figured this grand company had some secret way of doing it and just had to know. He told me that he gets about a hundred spams a day on average and that there is no way to block it since it is just so rampant. So folks if Microsoft can’t stop it, spam is here to stay, so let’s use it and save some of our hard earned money.

Oh, look at what the cat just dragged in…

Need I say more?

Human rights violations in China are rampant. These violations deal with issues like capital punishment and the country’s birth control program known as the One Child Policy. Over the years, thousands of deaths due to execution have been recorded. The One Child Policy, on the other hand, has resulted to various human rights violations that include forced abortions and sterilizations. However, the range of violations in human rights in China encompasses much more than the stated issues.

Aside from the fact that China does not have an independent judiciary, it is a country that does not hold national elections. Likewise, the Chinese government has put certain restrictions on freedom of expression by taking aggressive steps in personally censoring the Internet. It has imprisoned a number of people who posted “peaceful expressions” over the Internet and has imposed a registration policy for personal domestic websites. The government has even closed down several websites without warning. These acts have shut down the Chinese people’s means of communicating globally and have spawned incidents where children and other victims of violence or natural disasters have had a difficult time asking for support and aid from other countries and organizations.

China is also known for repressing the rights of minorities like Tibetans, Uighurs, and Mongolians. Recently, 30 Tibetan protesters were arrested and sentenced from 3 years to up to life imprisonment with no fair trial and access to lawyers. The trial was held behind closed doors, using secret evidence. Lawyers who offered their services to the Tibetans were threatened with disbarment by Beijing authorities.

Much of the human rights problems in China have remained unsolved and unheard of. Even the Tiananmen Square massacre, which recently celebrated its anniversary, has remained vague and unsolved up to this day.
