It says, "Everyone is welcome to read, but to avoid misuse only YubiKey users can edit." So, the implication is that spammers went out of their way to buy a Yubikey. I have to ask myself, would spammers actually buy a device in order to advertise a paper mill on a security system's wiki? It seems somewhat unlikely. If not the yubikey system--as implemented on Yubico's own site--doesn't actually appear to be working. BTW. Here is a higher level link: http://www.yubico.com/products/yubikey/ -- Anthony Carrico
