Where Does All The Spam Come From?

We’re always looking to reduce spam here at 3DPixel.net. In doing so we come across interesting statistics that we like to share with you, if you are so inclined of course.

Where Does All Our Spam Come From? shows a list of countries, and the corresponding count of IPs (Eurovision style listing) that we have now proactively blocked once they pass the ‘5 spams per IP’ threshold that we set internally. The spam that we receive from these IPs must be sufficiently high that we can say with all confidence ‘this is spam’. We add the 5-time threshold simply for completeness.

We update this list every 20 mins from the live Trap25 / Spamgate systems.

Proactively blocking repeat spammers reduces overall network load on the Spamgate servers, meaning we can get email to you quicker.
