in reply to SMS Message Board/Digital Signage

Is there some sort of filter in place that prevents smartasses like me from texting "f*** the world!"? If so, that'd be interesting. If not, hmm....

    There is filtering in place for the inbound SMS messages but this function is handled by the SMS gateway before the messages are passed through to SOAP web service end-point described above. In addition to this, there is a small charge associated with the sending of the SMS message, which should prove enough disincentive to prevent rampant spamming.

     

    perl -le "print unpack'N', pack'B32', '00000000000000000000001000000000'"

    Thor,
    You are correct. If somebody develops such kind of script the world would go head over heels for such script.
    I always spend lot of time in deleting "Excelent Offer ... Call Now" kind of SMSs.
