Is anyone else getting mountains of trackback spam. With comment moderation and Typekey authentication for comments, those aren’t a problem. (Of course with IE, most folks can’t even make a comment because of cookie problems, you have to delete all cookies to make typekey.com work).
But, the trackback stuff is completely unmoderated except for keyword searching. Right now I’m getting probably 20 trackback spam per day across all sites and the number is increasing exponentially.
So…trackbacks are going to get turned off for all new entries by default. Sorry all. Most folks aren’t using trackbacks anyway, they are kind of a power feature.
