Ask Dr. D: Why do Indians send WhatsApp Good Morning messages and clog servers?

One in three phones in India runs out of space daily, thanks to forwarded ‘Good Morning’ messages.

Dear Dr D,
What is this? No, seriously -what IS all of this? At dawn, every day, my servers are clogged with things like this from India. Have a look:

“my sms r few, yet, my heart is true i got many freinds new, but not sweet as u…. I never try to remember u bcoz i never forget u…..
Good Morning” *******


Another:
“Expresion of Eyes can be read by evry1 bt depresion of HEART can b read only by best one. care for evry1 bt don’t lose the best 1.
Good Morning..” *******

And then, there is this one:
