Spam Arrest seeks nearest memory hole

Over at the excellent spam blog Spam Kings, there is a write-up about Spam Arrest and their attempts to erase that which doesn't paint them in the best light.

While editing the past for your own benefit, ala 1984, is frowned upon by many - the larger issue here is that Spam Arrest is a company which supposedly exists to stop spam and yet they were repeatedly accused of spamming. That is what makes this a big deal - the fact that not only were there many reports of that, but the fact that they now want to erase those reports.
To their credit, from what I have seen and heard from others, they don't spam any longer, if they did in the first place.
