[Imc-communication] [Fwd: [www-features] Spam on *.indymedia.org]

[pina at riseup.net]

Hello network

This email arrived on www-features list, and regards about a series of
spam in several imcs with porn content.

This kind of post it's most likely to became legal problems to us, not to
mention that goes against editorial guidelines of most imcs (not say
everyone). So, I would like to ask to the local colectives Houston,
Valparaiso, Colombia, Thunderbay and South Africa, to keep a closer eye on
their open publish column, in order to prevent post like this.

In solidarity

Hi,

Our site (https://issues.apache.org/jira) was recently link-spammed with
URLs to porn spam on various indymedia.org sites, eg:

I guess you're running some sort of forums software that doesn't have a
captcha. It would be good to delete this spam before it kills your google
rankings.


Cheers,
Jeff
