<blockquote><p>Some time after we started mininova there were a few people that thought that uploading spam torrents would be a good idea to advertise their &#8220;GET A FREE XBOX 360&#8243; links (or PSP, or HDTV, or well you get the point ;)).</p>
<p>At this time we banned 3651 people (some of which are people who received multiple bans). To see if some country has more (persistant) spammers than others, I decided to compare some statistics.</p></blockquote>
<p>If you <a href="http://blog.mininova.org/articles/2006/06/21/banned">take a look at the stats</a> you&#8217;ll see that Germany has some hard-core spammers.</p>
