#akismet stats

Since the late 2006 when I started moving to Akismet for some spam protection for this blog, it has already blocked around 930,000 spam comments. Automattic released the latest Akismet stats per blog which is accessible in the WP admin panel. For this blog alone, Akismet had 936,274 spams caught with 31,680 legitimate comments. Had it not been with Akismet and other plugins like Spam Karma, blogs would suffer spam fatigue. And since Akismet is a centralized system, the worst they could do is attack the "central nervous system" itself and the whole thing breaks down (hack, DDOS attacks, etc). Spotify has released a new feature that lets users see their weekly listening stats, the company announced. The weekly stats are available to both free and Premium users in over 60 countries, making it easy for more people to track their music habits. To view the stats, users simply need to tap their profile photo in the Spotify app and select “Listening Stats.” The section will display the top songs, top artists, and suggested playlists.
