TOKYO (MacHouse) - myNBC is a free social networking service offered by American media company NBC. Several hours ago, an affiliate terrorist group started circulating spam comments around blogs and forums worldwide to advertise a blog hosted at myNBC. (See Screenshot 01.) This blog is filled by ad banners put by NBC and also text ads put by the pharmacy spam group. (See Screenshot 02-3.)

MacHouse is not funded by tax payers' money. We have limited resources. We also need time to sleep and eat just as others. So we will not act as the International police to contact all victims of website abuse. All you have to do is to subscribe to spam messages and spam posts. If we can, why don't you?
