Did the passage of gDPR impact the amount of spam on the ‘net, or not? It depends on who you ask.
The folks at the Recorded Future blog examined the volume of spam and the number of registrations for domains used in phishing activity, and determined the volume of spam was not impacted by the implementation of Europe’s new privacy laws.
