This is the tragedy of the commons all over again. "Free goods" carry

Well, I think it would be better to make people take a course or two
and get a license (like a driver's license) before letting them go
online. Then we wouldn't have clueless dweebs answering this stuff and
making it worthwhile to the spammers.
