I mean the spammer *is* oppressed by SpamAssassin.
I don't think so.
There is a simple rule how to self check ones own behaviour,
stating that one should behave in a way everybody could do. This
rule has been expressed by several people, most prominently by
Jesus and Kant. The rule appears to describe a system which
guarantees the optimum of freedom for everybody, without the
need of oppression.
Thus I think that actions that comply with the above rule cannot
be called 'oppression'; oppression requires at least that the
above rule is broken. If I throw away the spam I receive, I
don't hurt the right of other people to do the same with the
mails they don't want to read. Therefore, I would not call this
'oppression'.
cu,
