Ben,

The nice thing about your Javascript suggestion is that people will
think that they are just confirming their subscription (which is true)
while in reality it would be filtering spam. Another thing is that
they will already be committed having submitted the form, and would
likely click the confirm button.

A couple of cons of using your JavaScript suggestion should be noted.
The confirmation dialog is annoying, especially in IE since it makes a
noise.Secondly, some people may have JavaScript disabled. Third,
people may hesitate completing any other forms on the site thinking
that they will also have a confirmation on submit which is annoying.

The good thing is that the newsletter form is typically something a
visitor would only fill out once. They would not be annoyed by
confirmation dialogs again.

I may choose to use JavaScript as you have suggested instead of
checking if the first name and last name is the same. I'm not sure.
