News: Convicted spammer's appeal dismissed

The USA has Jeremy Jaynes, and the UK has Peter Francis-Macrae. What do these guys have in common? They are both spammers who have been found guilty of spamming and various other nefarious deeds. In the case of Francis-Macrae, he's just had his appeal dismissed (reported by the BBC and The Register).

Judging by his misdeeds, Francis-Macrae is a right nasty little brat, not only engaging in email harassment, but also in threatening actual physical harm to just about anyone who ever told him off about it. At his conviction, the judge described him as, "one of the most vindictive young men [he'd] ever seen".

Enjoy your porridge, Peter. All of it.
