diez años hizo el pasado 14 de abril del momento en que una empresa diseñó el primer script en perl para mandar publicidad de forma masiva vía email. una historia que merece la pena leer:
hoping to drum up some business, laurence canter dashed off a perl script that flooded online message boards with an advertisement pitching the legal services of canter & siegel, the law firm he ran with his then wife, martha siegel.
the response was immediate and harsh, offering one of the loudest signals up to that point that unchecked marketing would not be tolerated in the new medium. thousands of recipients registered their displeasure, and a new label for the burgeoning business of unsolicited mass internet advertising was coined.
y en sólo diez años nuestra experiencia comienza a verse turbada por el correo superfluo, los virus y los gusanos que se extienden en los sistemas operativos de microsoft. el nacimiento del spam no era más que el comienzo.
