\nDECSYSTEM-20 FAMILY OF COMPUTERS HAS EVOLVED FROM THE TENEX OPERATING SYSTEM
\nAND THE DECSYSTEM-10
\nCOMPUTER ARCHITECTURE. BOTH THE DECSYSTEM-2060T
\nAND 2020T OFFER FULL ARPANET SUPPORT UNDER THE TOPS-20 OPERATING SYSTEM.
\nTHE DECSYSTEM-2060 IS AN UPWARD EXTENSION OF THE CURRENT DECSYSTEM 2040
\nAND 2050 FAMILY. THE DECSYSTEM-2020 IS A NEW LOW END MEMBER OF THE
\nDECSYSTEM-20 FAMILY AND FULLY SOFTWARE COMPATIBLE WITH ALL OF THE OTHER
\nDECSYSTEM-20 MODELS.<\/p>\n

WE INVITE YOU TO COME SEE THE 2020 AND HEAR ABOUT THE DECSYSTEM-20 FAMILY
\nAT THE TWO PRODUCT PRESENTATIONS WE WILL BE GIVING IN CALIFORNIA THIS
\nMONTH. THE LOCATIONS WILL BE:<\/p>\n

TUESDAY, MAY 9, 1978 – 2 PM
\nHYATT HOUSE (NEAR THE L.A. AIRPORT)
\nLOS ANGELES, CA<\/p>\n

Ops, ecco quello che \u00e8 considerato il primo messaggio di spam nella storia della rete.<\/p>\n

Il “colpevole” \u00e8 stato identificato, dato che questa email, primogenita nella stirpe dello spam, era talmente naif da lasciare in chiaro l’indirizzo da cui proveniva il messaggio, riconducibile a Gary Thuerk, della divisione marketing di DEC, il quale ha avuto la brillante idea di spedire lo stesso messaggio pubblicitario a 393 utenti di Arpanet<\/a>. Eh, gi\u00e0, DEC aveva appena integrato il supporto per Arpanet nei nel sistema operativo TOPS-20<\/a> su DEC-20<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In realt\u00e0, a spedire l’email dall’account di Thuerk fu un ingegnere di DEC, Carl Gartley, ma poco conta.<\/p>\n

Piccolo dettaglio. Il programma utilizzato per spedire le email, SNDMSG<\/a>, poteva accettare solo 320 indirizzi, il resto fin\u00ec nel corpo dell’email. Eh, beh, non sapevano ancora dell’esistenza della funzionalit\u00e0 “Address File” che avrebbe consentito loro di spedire tutti i messaggi senza alcun problema.<\/p>\n

Pazienza, quelli non arrivati vennero rispediti con solerzia.<\/p>\n

E che problema c’\u00e8? Thuerk aveva anche avvertito il suo capo che ci sarebbe stata un po’ di maretta fra i destinatari, ma non poteva immaginare le reazioni. Tanto meno quella di Stallman che, pur non avendo ricevuto l’email in questione, prima chios\u00f2:<\/p>\n

\nMail-from: MIT-AI rcvd at 7-MAY-78 2316-PDT
\nDate: 8 MAY 1978 0213-EDT
\nFrom: RMS at MIT-AI (Richard M. Stallman)
\nSubject: MSGGROUP# 697 Some Thoughts about advertising
\nTo: stefferud at USC-ISI
\nRedistributed-To: [ISI]Mailing.List;154:
\nRedistributed-By: STEFFERUD (connected to MSGGROUP)
\nRedistributed-Date: 8 MAY 1978<\/code><\/p>\n

1) I didn’t receive the DEC message, but I can’t imagine I would have been bothered if I have. I get tons of uninteresting mail, and system announcements about babies born, etc. At least a demo MIGHT have been interesting.<\/p>\n

2) The amount of harm done by any of the cited “unfair” things the net has been used for is clearly very small. And if they have found any people any jobs, clearly they have done good. If I had a job to offer, I would offer it to my friends first. Is this “evil”? Must I advertise in a paper in every city in the US with population over 50,000 and then go to all of them to interview, all in the name of fairness? Some people, I am afraid, would think so. Such a great insistence on fairness would destort everyone’s lives and do much more harm than good. So I state unashamedly that I am in favor of seeing jobs offered via whatever.<\/p>\n

3) It has just been suggested that we impose someone’s standards on us because otherwise he MIGHT do so. Well, if you feel that those standards are right and necessary, go right ahead and support them. But if you disagree with them, as I do, why hand your opponents the victory on a silver platter? By the suggested reasoning, we should always follow the political views that we don’t believe in, and especially those of terrorists, in anticipation of their attempts to impose them on us. If those who think that the job offers are bad are going to try to prevent them, then those of us who think they are unrepugnant should uphold our views. Besides, I doubt that anyone can successfully force a site from outside to impose censorship, if the people there don’t fundamentally agree with the desirability of it.<\/p>\n
