On Being Called a Spam by a Robot

It is really a bit disconcerting. I just got a message from the administrator of this site informing me that they consider this blog as a possible spam. This, according to the fair judgment of their "spam robots." The e-mail instructed me to hit a button to file an unlock request. While the e-mail also apologized for this inconvenience, it still makes me wonder how post-modern we can indeed be, and the extent to which we are all sucked up and held captive by its manifestations in our everyday lives. Yes, the e-mail apologized. But how sure am I that such apology did not also come from a robot?
