Educators have expressed concern about Americans falling behind in tech fields, but there is at least one area in which the United States is still firmly on top.
According to statistics from SophosLabs, the United States distributes more spam than any other country in the world, clocking in at a "respectable"18.3 percent of junk email sent.
The study tracked the amount of spam sent between December 2012 and February 2013. While the U.S. distributes the lion’s share of the world’s spam, other countries are by no means innocent of clogging inboxes worldwide.
China took the second spot and India the third, with 8.2% and 4.2% of the world’s spam, respectively. Other high-ranking countries included Peru, France, South Korea and Italy.
