		<description>RE: The comment spam problem [posting here as comments are closed on that entry] - I also wonder when google / blogger are going to do something to cut down on the amount of comment spam there.

I read faily blogs who post there and within minutes of a post there are 3 comments etc.. which are all automated junk :(

Good luck with the new plugin!

		<description>Counter strategies: 

- Regulate to favor incumbents. Death by a thousand delays, taxes, e911, etc. 

- QOS and other blocking by degrees. Force regulatory responses that take years and cost millions. 

- Sponsoring political candidates who defend incumbents and oppose candidates who favor muni-wifi.</description>
