How is this spam? Are tiny transactions like these considered to be spam?

The transactions have a public note on them, saying their website. Blockchain also has a feature to label addresses, and Laxo Trade is using an address which is labeled with their name and website.
The public notes are actually only available if you use the blockchain.info block explorer, otherwise they will be invisible to you (they are not actually on the blockchain).

Most importantly they are paying an appropriate miners fee therefore are essentially paying to help keep the network secure

I kinda agree with your theory, that they are helping in the long run.. so maybe they are advertising too, but at least they are paying the miner fee for the advertisements. I really dont see any harm unless there is some kind of ulterior motive. Most folks in the crypto world are smart enough to understand that HYIP's just don't work. So if we are making something out of it and there is no way they can hijack your BTC wallet, i dont really see any harm Tongue
I really do not understand why people view advertisements on this forum as to be so negative. Bills need to be paid, and users do not want to pay for services that they consider should be free. Advertisements are the only answer to this problem. If you do not agree with the policy of the advertisees (publishers) then you should buy up the advertising space and advertise something different.

They are not hurting anyone by advertising their services via blockchain.info, if you don't think they will provide a good service then don't use it. If you think they are running some type of scamming service then make a scam accusation.
