Robert Accettura: Bayesian Spam Filter Poisoning With RSS
"My theory is that the new technique spammers seem to be taking on is to use RSS feeds as an input source to make spam look more legitimate and keep the content timely (to avoid filtering). RSS is easy to retrieve, parse, and is extremely plentiful. As a result it’s possible to have an endless sea of salt to try and get around the filters."

Bryan Ruby is owner and editor for CMS Report. He founded CMSReport.com in 2006 on the belief that information technologists, website owners, and web developers desired visiting sites where they could learn more about content management systems without the sales pitch. Although Bryan has been active in the content management community for a number of years, please do not call him a CMS expert. Bryan's preference is to be labeled a CMS enthusiast.
Outside of late night blogging hours, he is the Information Technology Officer for a field office in the federal government. Away from the computer he enjoys his family, bicycling, camping, and the outdoors.
