it did change my behaviour when I send bitcoins,mostly
I don't like to be asked to pay 0.001 bitcoin fee for a 0.07 btc transaction (almost 1.5%) and then wait for it to go through for additional 3-12 hours
and I pity those who rely on microtransactions,people who are using faucets,PTC or other ways to earn bitcoins online
they suffer huge setbacks because of the fees-their multiple dust payments take up a lot of space and therefore cost way too much for this
sort of moneymaking (if you can call it so) be worth the time spent

Why won't they send these spam transactions via one of hundreds of alts which have zero fees? Not like they need bitcoin's security for sending $1... Convert into some alt with shapeshift and use that.
