Title: Russia’s Biggest Spammer Brutally Murdered in Apartment
Post by: UAK on July 27, 2005, 08:59:21 AM

Vardan Kushnir, notorious for sending spam to each and every citizen of Russia who appeared to have an e-mail, was found dead in his Moscow apartment on Sunday, Interfax reported Monday. He died after suffering repeated blows to the head.

Kushnir, 35, headed the English learning centers the Center for American English, the New York English Centre and the Centre for Spoken English, all known to have aggressive Internet advertising policies in which millions of e-mails were sent every day.

In the past angry Internet users have targeted the American English centre by publishing the Center’s telephone numbers anywhere on the Web to provoke telephone calls. The Center’s telephone was advertised as a contact number for cheap sex services, or bargain real estate sales.

Another attack involved hundreds of people making phone calls to the American English Center and sending it numerous e-mails back, but Vardan Kushnir remained sure of his right to spam, saying it was what e-mails were for.

Under Russian law, spamming is not considered illegal, although lawmakers are working on legal projects that could protect Russian Internet users like they do in Europe and the U.S.

I find it hard to believe that a guy was killed for spamming. There must've been another reason. If not then there are some sad people in the world. I mean you don't have the time to click delete on your PC but you have the time to organize a murder. It takes a sick person to do something like that, and it takes an idiot to laugh at that situation. I'd kind of understand if the guy was filling up people's computers with child pornography, but just regular old advertisements? Give me a break.

I'm just going to assume the murder was drug related or something.
