Signs of the Devolution 0
When I started this in the early days of the blogosphere, comment spam was a thing. Then, as “social” media began to attract everybody’s eyeballs, as the saying goes, the amount of comment spam died out. It never went away, but it became relatively rare.
There’s been a sharp uptick in comment spam the past few weeks (indeed, I deleted over two dozen spam comments yesterday). Fortunately, thanks to Akismet, almost none of it makes to your screens.
It’s almost all for on-line gambling sites and apps.
This is not a good thing.
