Stupid hack I’ve just thought of. My email address is:
@silogenixkry.org
Spam harvesters looking at that will see the following code:
@silogenixkry.org
Or, with HTML stripped, @silogenixkry.org
, which ain’t an email
address. It does it by breaking up the address into bits, putting the
bits into HTML in the wrong order, and reassembling the bits into a
readable order with judicious use of
CSS.*
It requires a certain amount of fiddling to get the margins right such
that (a) the address shows up in the right order and (b) changes in
font-size don’t screw it up. I’d write a tiny web-service to do it to a
supplied address if I could be bothered; lazyweb, go for it. Of course,
if everyone uses this, harvesters will learn how to interpret CSS (and
this is relatively trivial to do in this case). Might keep your name off
the lists for a little while longer, though.
