I used to use Newsshark, a Newsgroup decryption program, to download porn. Sometimes I’d get messages reading like the one below:
Get your wanly shouting pen near my fire. I was improving to
taste you some of my distant floors. Don’t arrive a pickle!
Some dirty light pear orders doses throughout Amber’s tired boat.
Tomorrow, ointments comb behind upper offices, unless they’re
stale. Some printers will be blank healthy powders. Just now
Norman will look the pitcher, and if Ann usably learns it too, the
cap will talk within the raw store. Until Edwina climbs the
butchers tamely, Zamfir won’t fill any outer sunshines. Who doesn’t
Yani love smartly? We cover them, then we hatefully clean Genevieve and
Excelsior’s pathetic bucket. I am easily weird, so I join you. If the
elder eggs can waste biweekly, the dark can may seek more highways.
In other words, randomly generated sentences following the rules of spelling and grammar, but telling cryptic, bizarre stories which make no sense whatsoever. Don’t believe me? Go to ‘Groups’ in Google Search and type in “raw canyon,” or “hatefully clean,” or any of the other non-sequiturs in the above message. You’ll get hundreds of crazy stories, and many of them are very entertaining to read.
Here’s what I want to know: How do they generate this text, and what purpose does it serve? My first guess would be to bypass spam filters. Am I right?
