(http://mashable.com/2013/08/09/70-percent-email-is-spam/) I subscribe to very specific email lists whose content ends up being comprised of mostly spam. It's a shame, as the Internet can be used to share information and culture, but is currently being over-shadowed by spam. And the users of the Internet end up subsidizing the business model of spammers in the form of increased Internet access fees.
