I am accustomed to receiving e-mail from Amazon.com, as I am a fiercely loyal customer who shops there quite frequently. But it took me by surprise this weekend to discover that that mounds of porn spam and junk e-mail laced with computer viruses are actively being blasted from digital real estate leased to the e-commerce giant.

This explains why the email that I used to buy from Amazon.com is constantly flooded with spam messages for several years. I recently registered that same address to a local Yahoo group and it seems the junk spam amount dropped off.
