theweaselkingPlaxo.com: Spamming scum.
Not only do they send unsolicited bulk commercial email, faking "oh you should join" messages from people who don't exist, but they ALSO insist that you personally visit their site, view their ads, put in your email address *and* click-through a "confirm that my email address is live so that it's more valuable to us when we sell it to other spammers in the future" link.
Fuck that. UCE is spam. Anything that wants you to opt-out is spam. Demanding confirmation of an email address in response to UCE while asking to opt-out? SPAM.
Plaxo.com are spammers. If you use plaxo for any reason, you are an idiot and you deserve to be punched in the lung.
