Spam by volume

For years, the USA has come out at the top of our spam by volume chart.

That has been a simple side-effect of cheap and fast internet access available to a large population that owns lots of computers.

But China has been flirting with top spot for the previous year, and finally cracked that dubious honour in the last quarter of 2014:


Remember, the per-person figures don't tell us which countries have the most spamlords or cybercrooks. If anything, they tell us which countries have the most slapdash attitude to computer security, because the majority of spam is sent by malware-infected computers that send unsolicited emails without their users realising.

There's an important lesson to be learned here: inaction in the face of spam threats only helps spammers make money.
