I find it VERY hard to believe that such a system wouldent be relativly easy
to construct using todays technology. Distributed processing could help
enormously.

Once something is identified as spam reliably, it is very easy to start
knocking it out circulation in the internet; futher more you wait for these
people who set up these spam websites to start sending out emails to them,
and apply relevant filters to store the information on which domains are
sent, you find the worst offenders, you ban them from registering domains IF
you can, if only ones for your country.

I mean sweet jesus... if I can think up these ideas... surley there are at
least a few people (heh...) cleverer than me who could better them and
impliment them.
