His anti-spam efforts are largely focused on shutting down the spammers websites through coordinating with their ISPs and registrars, not on filtering or blocking, which he sees as options that effectively ignore rather than solve the problem. KnujOn has shut down more than 30,000 spam sites, and has been aided in this by Internet users who forward the organization their junk mail. The junk mail is used to create a database that links sites to known spammers.<ref>[http://www.macworld.com/article/59673/2007/08/spam.html Spam fighters hit criminals' weak spot]</ref>
