The Dirty Dozen Spampionship: Who's who in the global spam-sending league?

The Dirty Dozen Spampionship: Who's who in the global spam-sending league? | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it
It's once again time for our quarterly Spampionship charts.

We looked at the sending countries for all our spam in the first three months of 2014, and turned the figures into a League Table - the sort of league you don't want to win!...


That's because cybercrooks don't send their own spam: that would be expensive, and easy to track, and would point the finger of law enforcement right back at them.

Instead, the crooks co-opt innocent third parties - like you and me, or our friends and family - to send spam for them.

The criminals use malware-infected computers as remote control "spam robots," better known as bots or zombies, to churn out unwanted and illegal emails on their behalf.

You end up paying for the bandwidth, carrying the risk, and contributing to your country's standing in the Spampionship.

The Countries That Eat The Most And Least Meat

The Countries That Eat The Most And Least Meat | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it
Of all the countries in the world, which consumes the most meat per person? The answer might surprise you.

This article includes a list of countries by Nobel laureates per capita. That is, a list of countries ranked by their Nobel Prize winners in relation to their population. Because the population of a country is significantly higher than its Nobel laureates, the figures have been multiplied by 10 million.
