Umm, there isn't supposed to be any spam at all on it, it's pretty slick, nice interface, I don't really need the account, but since everyone is freaking I figured I would get one while the gettin was good.

yea but spidering a website is totally diff than spidering your private email context.
That's the one where they read your e-mail for you and send you junk mail based on what they read!
Would be like saying the add at the bottom send you pm's based on what you post. There's a HUGE difference. Anyhow, the spider isn't "spying" it's mearly looking for keywords and delivering content based on them.

Yea that isn't exactly what you indicated, it does exactly what the bottom of this forum google add does, it spiders the page and tries to deliver relevent advertising in a column on the right, it doesn't spam you.
