U.S. Remains the King of Spam

It would appear that every nation on earth is fighting spam... except the United States, where relayed spam continues to grow quarterly.

These findings come from a recent report by international IT security firm, Sophos.

28% of all of the world's spam is relayed from US computers. That's five times the level of any other country on the globe.

By contrast, Canada, which has had an anti-spam action plan since 2004, has reduced it's contribution to the problem to a miniscule 0.8%.
