Two years spent spamming spammers back
Sure, great idea, funny and clever and all that.<p>But I disagree with the idea that inboxes are sacred, and disagree with the attitude of &quot;how dare people send marketing to me!&quot; Fraudulent spam is one thing. Plain old marketing or sales cold calls, though... you know people are going to do it. It is their job. And I&#x27;d much rather get emails than I can quickly delete and ignore vs. phone calls. And once in a while, someone actually hits on a service that is useful to me.<p>So I don&#x27;t think the real-life scenario of people badgering you outside the door is accurate. The better metaphor would be one comparing your inbox to your actual mailbox. Sure, junk mail is annoying and most of it gets thrown out. But sometimes that restaurant down the street does send coupons.
