Is there a valid and legitimate reason for 163data.com.cn? Has anyone ever seen any real traffic from them? All I ever get is spam comments and a continual stream of machines attempting to subvert my email server to send spam.

I suppose that some of their machines could be compromised and be in a botnet but the number of different IP addresses I've seen doing exactly the same thing suggests that either the whole system is compromised or 163data.com.cn actively promote spamming practices… and its being going on for so long that I suspect they are complicit in the whole mess.

I see Facebook is now taking money off companies so that they can basically spam peoples news feeds. I don't mind seeing posts from companies etc. that I have liked because I've liked them for a specific reason.

But when a company I have never heard off spams my news feed with something that I don't give a shit about and expects me to "like" their page … well they can just fuck off. Not only can they fuck off but I will try to ensure I never use any products or services that that company provides…
