I was just thinking to use some kind of a real detail to make life easier for the users so they won't have to fight with Captcha's and thus protecting spam registration to the service in an easier way than responding to a captcha on the device itself. I wonder if there is some kind of a detail that cannot be faked by spammers that I could use as an authenticator. That is - I do not really require a specific user id, just a way to prevent spam and bot activity since the service will be used for statistical data. -Sivan > > > As simple as go to the firmware download page (with a script) enter the IMEI > the user supplies, see if it authenticates. Right, a web scrape hack. Yuck! _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
