No Paywall Here!
The Internet Patrol is and always has been free. We don't hide our articles behind a paywall, or restrict the number of articles you can read in a month if you don't give us money.
That said, it does cost us money to run the site, so if something you read here was helpful or useful, won't you consider donating something to help keep the Internet Patrol free?
Thank you!

same problem as “buffet”, #2 partially obscured, from what i can read, “Email from a business I don’t know, and with which I have no relationship, is:” my answer is “spam” and i usually delete it unread. i do receive and read e-mail from businesses whose services and products i own or might be interested in buying. no russian women, viagra, lotteries, pictures of nekkid gurls or cheap bootleg rx meds. no shady business deals wanted, thanks but no thanks. i’ll keep my money in my pocket, and myself out of jail.
Question #2 is not visible??
Anne,
Maybe for a future column you could address which is most effective re spam– unsubscribe, block, report, or ignore?
don’t mind spam if it is useful hints or information to interest me
