Just cause there are unprotected WLANs dosn't imply that spammers use 
them (perhaps its to hard for the spammers ;)).
Corporations should protect ther WLANs but saying that spamming is a 
great threat is to overdo it.

I agree, but people said that the spammers wouldn't be able to
deal with BGP route advertisement but there was cases of spammers
injecting routes sending out spam then removing those routes. Wlan is
easy.
