Jesper Rønn-Jensen is planning a suicide mission on December 15th. He's going to turn off all spam blocker on his blog, just to see what happens. He's also inviting everyone to join in.
When I first got to know about that, my first impression was "what a stupid idea". But curiosity killed the feline and I had to go through the entire post.
The main idea behind this is to find out how much work Akismet and other software save us. Not to mention server load.
The fact is nobody starts a blog anymore without taking precautions against spam. So we don't actually have a real perspective on how much of it is kept away.
Let's wait and see, I'm not going to join, but the results will surely be pretty interesting.
