[anti-abuse-wg] Spam FAQs need revision

Hi,

> -- "Should I just ignore spam?"

On the spam should be ignored discussion. It's time people realised and acted upon the fact that by reporting spam and all the content/fraud/phishing/malware related with spam to spam reporting centres and/or authorities, maybe just something will change. Somewhere in this data the identity of the spammers lies hidden, including the data of all involved, whether consciously or unconsciously. Also countries or agencies less active will be revealed. Transparency is what this discussion needs and that may just prove half of the much needed silver bullet. Without reporting there is no analyses of data.

So please change the topic to report spam actively where possible. And perhaps even add that if there is no spam reporting centre in a country, to lobby to your local government to start one.

Regards,

Wout
