    Dale Begg-Smith, Adscpm Spyware King wins Olympic Gold

    Read more about it at this website:

    http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,15508219


    I am only posting this, because this guy is not a hero, he is a criminal, and I think the internet community may be interested in what is happening.

    The man made his millions infesting peoples computers with crap, and spent it at ski lodges, living the good life.

    I am going to post this thread in every offtopic section of every forum I participate in... I am not going to let him get away with this.

    I'll be damned if someone this ethically vacuous gets any honor, he already has his dirty millions, he deserves nothing but shame with it.

    Does spyware somehow invalidate his athletic proves?

      No, but he certainly should be remembered not for his skiing, but for his lack of scruples, selfishness, and attempts at making the internet a difficult and crime filled place.

      I am just hoping his gold medal reputation gets tarnished with all his dirt.

        This is the Olympics you're talking about, right???

        Meh, if he didn't do it someone else would have. And you can't really hold it against him. At least the guy had the sense to join a nation that knows how to play hockey.

          We must respect and accomodate the cultural differences of devoted spammers. Anyone who says otherwise is just a close-minded spamophobe, and in fact the real cause of the whole problem.

              the article title is misleading... he was much more than a spammer, his company and websites installed spyware and adware through windows exploits.

                Story not ready to go away yet:

                "...Doxdesk database of parasites fame, with a list of domains owned by CPM Media, Inc. Andrew also commented:

                CPM Media and their many many aliases* were one of the heaviest users of browser security exploits outside of the CWS complex. Their abuse of flaws to install large quantities of their own and affiliate spyware is certainly illegal under hacking laws in many countries. Begg-Smith's business is not just unethical but solidly criminal."
