And I think that a plausible argument can be made that what Facebook et.al. are doing is worse -- in the long run, not in the obvious/immediate sense.I think I agree. It accustoms people to think that spamming is OK, when you're...I don't know, popular? rich? big? enough.
Letting your dog crap on your neighbor's lawn is not OK. Dumping your nuclear power plant's waste on your neighbor's lawn is also not OK. But they're certainly *not* the same amount of "not OK" (unless maybe your dog's name is Clifford and he had burritos for lunch). And saying that they're in fact the same amount of "not OK" prohibits any sort of sane discussion on the matter.
