I have to say that Lycos is in the right ball park. DDoS is not an issue, since the spammers are NOT legit. NO LEGIT COMPANY SPAMS, so therefore their servers are not legit and should be removed from the internet. And if the law won't do it, the marketplace should. They do NOT have a right to exist and do business. They do NOT have any 'freedom of speech', since what they are 'saying' harms EVERYONE it comes in contact with. They are infringing on MY right to freedom of speech by making it harder for me to maintain an email account.
I see spammers and the companies behind it as nothing better than thieves.
