Nowadays many spammers’ attacks are accomplished by real people. In such cases the usage of captcha and other techniques set against spam bots are not effective.

One of the possible solutions against spammers is the restriction of web sites registrations based on the geographical location. It can be implemented using the GeoIP database.
