It is nothing to do with moral standards. It is to do with class.

Something that is in short supply in our business. I don't care if you drive an Escalade. You know how you got it. Hell, I could sell coke and make the same dough, but why would I? Fuck the rats in this business. Kind of like Joe Kennedy and look what happened to that family. Absolutely no respect. OK, I know jack was a good guy, but a first among rats.

Dont confuse morality with ethics.

Views surrounding nudity, sex, etc vary from region to region, country to country, religion to religion.

However, a basic sense of right and wrong regarding things like thievery, deception are pretty universally accepted across humanity.

Not in old school porn.
edit. because I don't need the aggravation of a freeking lawsuit for speaking the truth.

The truth is the best defense for libel.

Yeah, but why do I need to even defend it. I am going to Mexico tomorrow for a little r and r. I have no need of litigation to prove a point. I know I am right. The cocksuckers all have lawyers and I really don't need the agro.

Truth is absolute protection from libel, but your point is well taken concerning lawyers.

So it's "wrong" to spam but "right" to make money off hosting the spammers?

Sorry, but especially in this biz, spamming just ain't up there with unethical or immoral to me.

As far as universally accepted across humanity, I can pretty much guarantee you most people would choose a spammer over a pornographer to have into their home.

Where did I list spamming as a specific behavior as either ethical or unethical?

Sorry, it seems like Gonzo was doing that and since spamming was what we were talking about, I ASSumed you were referring to it also. Sometimes the lines between the two of you blur. What WERE you referring to since the rest of us were talking about spamming?

I wasn't referring to anything in particular.

All the ethics stuff started with the Zango threads though, I'd definitely consider anything like malware to be unethical. It alters a person's computer without their permission, makes it do things they dont want it to do and inhibits it's ability to perform as that person would reasonably expect. It serves no purpose or provides no value to the consumer of the product other than to make a dollar for the "advertiser" who installed it.
