拥有回忆 提交于 2019-12-29 03:20:07

I am not just talking about the "type the text" type, but anything that requires the user to waste his time to prove himself human. What can I do here? 回答1: Requiring Javascript to post data blocks a fair amount of spam bots while not interfering with most users.

问题 I am developing an android messaging application. Is there a good spam filtering algorithm that works well for SMS? Please give some things to kick start. Rahim. 回答1: I don't think there is a set algorithm through which you can definitely know whether or not user considers an SMS to be spam, (an ad in SMS can be important to some users and spam to others) what you can do however is what Google does to identify spam mail. You could allow the user to mark an SMS as spam or not spam and then

In the past, they are easy to block by domain, but I can't exactly block the domain for URL shortener since I'm seeing some valid usage as well. Any best practice on how to manage these spam URLs (and spammers that are using it)? 回答1: You could also do something like http://www.untiny.me/ when a post is submitted. Basically, send an HTTP request and capture the "HTTP 301" response. You can then examine the URL
