Richi Jennings: iMessage spam explosion: Apple flamed for bad design and dropping ball


Spam spam spam spam. Spam spam spam spam. Wonderful spam.

For many users, iMessage is becoming an unusable cesspool of spam. Apple
(NASDAQ:AAPL) is under fire for poor security design in iMessage, and for
failing to react to the (inevitable) spam problem that has ensued.

smh. Why do we keep having to reinvent the wheel, every single freakin' time a
new communications tool becomes popular? In IT Blogwatch, bloggers eyeroll
furiously. Not to mention: Bloody Vikings…
