Henning: Goodbye TrackBack, I barely knew thee.
Now this is just the latest symptom of an issue I’ve been wondering about for some time. When weblogging became the hip thing to do some years ago, we already had newsgroups, forums and guestbooks burried under truckloads of spam for viagra and animal porn. Even the worst web programming tutorials began with a two page indoctrination about how you should always assume that every user could be satan himself. And yet the way comments and trackbacks have been implemented up to the present day is just crying for abuse. “Not having learned from past mistakes” doesn’t come close to what has happened here.
