There is one way to get this teach people about spam and really go after the spammers themselves.
I disagree. The spammers operate in other countries where we can't "go after" them but the money is from the good ol' USA. Reduce demand is the only way to remove unpleasantries from a free market system - and in this case that means making it illegal to hire someone to represent your company/product in an invasive fashion and give end-users civil recourse to the person who paid for the spam. Spammers are merely doing the bidding of their bosses.

You advocate a "war on drugs" type enforcement where we go after the growers & couriers. It never, never works because where there is demand the marketplace *will* provide.
