We have touched on spam in this blog, so I thought I'd share this good news.

A spam kingpin is under arrest after a federal indictment for all kinds of charges related to his spam empire. Apparently this guy is such a prolific spammer that authorities predict e-mail users around the world will see a decrease in spam, just from this one arrest. Notice that identity theft is one of the charges against him. His company boasted that it could send out 20 million e-mails in 15 days.
