Spam might be thought of as an infection, and spam blocking is equivalent to
antibiotics. However is there any potential for *immunization*? I imagine an
"anti-spam bot" that infects people's computers with a spam-bot killer
application. I can see an ethical question in this - immunizing users'
computers without their knowledge - but that is till better than the
infection, especially as the "anti-spam bot" could be made to have no side
effects.
