Splog:l'ultima frontiera dello spamming in rete.

Weblogs,or blogs,have become an important new way to publish information,engage in discussions and form communities.The increasing popularity of blogs has given rise to search and analysis engines focusing on the "blogosphere".A key requirement of such systems is to identify blogs as they crawl the Web.While this ensures that only blogs are indexed,blog search engines are also often overwhelmed by spam blogs(splogs).Splogs not only incur computational overheads but also reduce user satisfaction.The aim of the paper is to investigate the juridical problems concerning this topic.
