Is the Free Galaxy Registration Service the Work of a Spammer?
There’s funny business going on at the free name a galaxy web site, which cropped up on the internet a few years ago as direct competition to the fundraising name a galaxy service our observatory offers. Not only is no payment asked for when someone names a galaxy, the free name a galaxy web site owner mocked and criticized the donation we ask for. Our competition offered, for for free, a computer-generated certification that must be published at one’s individual. The “fee” that he knocked is a donation towards the operation of our technological installation and the cost of astronomical inquiry that we conduct there. The no-charge appoint a galaxy web site renders a prospect nothing more than an automated program that issues the data that the galaxy registrant types into a web page form. But, as with most everything that’s free, there’s a catch. This free name a galaxy site asks a person enter a name and email address, even though all that is ever emailed to the registrant is a code that is unnecessary to the process. Why is this? You can presume that the free name a galaxy website is run by a spammer who is accumulating email addresses that are later resold to a third party.
The no-charge name a galaxy site operator pronounces that he has no intent of selling email addresses. But what is his purpose, then? Why would he steal our name a galaxy idea and turn around and produce a free galaxy naming site? If he’s not compiling e-mail addresses for spammers, then perchance he’s just a mean guy. Our customer service telephone number is clearly released on our internet site, but his is not. So it is impossible to call this guy up to ask him what he’s up to.
Why name a star when you can name a galaxy?
