Yup. That's the job of good intel agencies and cyber-defense.

Of course with BlueFrog, that work was already done -- just automate the response do complain/unsub, and the spam campaign becomes a DDOS on the advertiser. I'd love to see that back again.

Same for spam/spoofed-ID tel calls. Answering and trolling the telemarketer by wasting their time is nice by ineffective 1-on-1. It'd be nice to ID & target them with a scaled-up response.
