theplanet.com referral spam
February 25th, 2004
i realized today that most of referral spams i’m getting are sent by the theplanet.com hosting service. take a look
that is gross! here’s a more complete list. either theplanet is getting paid for doing this kind of nasty work or someone is seriously abusing their service. either way theplanet.com will be blocked by me. if you use textism referral script, go to your phpmyadmin and open your refer table and type in:
SELECT host, refer FROM `refer` WHERE host like '%theplanet.com%'
and see what kind of referrals you are getting from them. most of the referrals from them are porn sites. recently i started getting john kerry referral spam from them just like this guy. i plan to write to abuse@theplanet.com to find out what’s going on.
amazing book

this is amazing - i’m very surprised the book hits the best seller list in the country. that at least shows people seem to care despite they still have no power over their country. it should influence them one way or another. push the gov’t to give answers.
“An expose of the sufferings of the nearly one billion peasant farmers in China has rocketed into the country’s best-seller lists, apparently forcing the regime to address the issue.
A new survey has drawn attention to the suffering of peasant farmers in China
Chinese Peasantry: a Survey discloses the poverty and corruption affecting the rural majority of 900 million, whose exploitation underlies the gloss of China’s perceived urban economic miracle.
It describes farmers being beaten to death for complaining about embezzlement, officials conniving to hoodwink Communist Party leaders about production levels, and a tax system which forces the poor in effect to subsidise the rich minority. It helps to explain the exodus of workers from farms to low-paid, often dangerous jobs in the booming coastal provinces or Europe and America.”
