Someone forwarded me this e-mail from the Canada France Hawaii Telescope. An activist site in Denmark has been sending spam and clogging their servers with anti-TMT drivel:
"Just a heads-up that CFHT started to receive 100 spam emails per hour last night, with copies of anti-TMT letters to Ige (or other content that's anti-TMT). Apparently, the VIS is also under attack.
An activist site in Denmark was using a public email address that we use for information and outreach. We disabled that address until we can filter those emails out.
I just thought you should be aware. Please share with your software
departments!"
