Rachel and Lenny walk into a bar...

Apparently someone has put some simply code for a voice response unit that acts as a time-waster for telemarketers: <http://toao.net/595-lenny> It's worth a listen to one or two of Lenny's greatest hits on youtube. My questions: How many Lenny's would it take to make telemarketers give up? It reads like there's at least 2 out there, so the answer right now is "more than 2". As another related question, how big a percentage of honeypots does it take to make things like WordPress login guessing not worth the skiddy's time and effort? How big a percentage of fake PerlBots would it take to get the ICQ botnet herders to give up? (SHOUTZ to JB and STMIK!) _______________________________________________ NOTE: As of July 10, the mailing list address HAS CHANGED from @linuxbox.org TO @lists.linuxbox.org.
