Default Freeware Bluejacking App - BT Spammer

http://www.smartphone-freeware.com/...bt-spammer.html

"The title of this software is self-explanatory I guess. BT Spammer is a tool for one time or periodical "spamming" all nearby Bluetooth devices (in visible mode). BT Spammer allows users to set up ..."

Here is a freeware Bluejacking app for you guys called BT Spammer. As it states above BT Spammer lets you send out periodic bust of unwanted Bluetooth messages to unsuspecting individuals. As Spider-Man has taught us in the past, with great power comes great responsibility... so in other words, this program is intended for practical jokes and fun, not actual spamming!

Default Why Even Mention This?

I have to admit that I'm puzzled why you would even mention this piece of software junk. Its an invitation to misuse this software. I know you caveated it with "this program is intended for practical jokes and fun, not actual spamming!", but the truth is somebody is going to misuse it and they may not have if it hadn't been brought to their attention.

Somebody is always going to misuse something, no matter what it is. I mentioned this program because it has many other uses besides being misused. For instance, a group of old co-workers from when I use to sell phones use to use Bluejacking software to play a variation of 'tag'. If I didn't report on something interesting when it came along because someone might misuse it, we would never talk about some of the really cool Smartphone apps.

I felt the same way when I read this. Why would this site promote this garbage?
