http://www.lockergnome.com/social/2012/04/10/should-social-networks-sue-spammers/ - Twitter has made waves recently for its decision to file lawsuits against the five most prolific spammers and spamming tool providers. In a blog post, Twitter announced, "Our engineers continue to combat spammers' efforts to circumvent our safeguards, and today we're adding another weapon to our arsenal: the law." It would appear that I can't tweet about anything current or relevant to present trends without receiving a dozen responses from spammers and hacked accounts sending me links to whatever porn or fake something else site these con artists want me to stumble into. To prevent this from getting even more out of hand, should social networks sue spammers?
