'"As with other everyday annoyances such as air pollution, traffic congestion and high gas prices, Americans appear to be increasingly tolerant of spam.
According to a new survey, fewer Internet users are irritated by junk e-mail than a year ago, even though they report getting more of it.
About 67 percent of computer users say spam has made being online unpleasant or annoying, compared with 77 percent a year ago, according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project's survey, released Sunday."
NOTE:Many news sites move articles into data bases after a period of time and then offer them for sale, in the process changing the URLs that link to them. Or they require registration. Thus, we provide a link to the front page of the news website and the information necessary to find the story on that site, rather than a direct link to the article.
