I'm not so sure its corrupt Government or People...
In 2001 I spent almost a whole year filing complaints with ISP's about SPAM. Over the year I saw less SPAM getting sent from US IP's and more and more coming from China, Korea and Latin America. You would not know how angry I was in not being able to stop it, with the language barrier etc. I began to think that the 3rd world contries were setting up shop because the wanted the money. At least I thought this until I moved 2 1/2 years ago to Latin America to repair computers. I saw the real truth, pirated OS's & lack of understanding the dangers of the Internet made my job mostly cleaning up virues, trojans and malware. The people here hate them just as much as anyone else. Look at the area of the world where most of the pirated windows reside and you will see the correlation to the malware sites. Stealth Hosting sold by Botnet operators for extreemly big $$$ allow this crap to continue. The systems that are not kept up to date are getting taken over by - you got it - your local SPAMMER in the USA who mails and hosts sites through the use of Botnets has found a goldmine in 3 world countries.

The way to fix it is to find the AH's in the US who are selling SPAM & Stealth Hosting service and put the screws to them. You will never find them by WHOIS or Tracerts simply because those tools tell you where the malware and trojans are installed. How to find these guys, follow the money. Set up a sting operation and follow the money. At the end of that trail you will find the Pinko Commi Pigs who actually live next door to you, yes the guy you drink beer with.
