Re: Enjoy
said by bewale  :I get SPAM every flippin day in my postal mail. That's not illegal... and no one seems to object to that. As much as I too detest e-mail SPAM, it should not be illegal. One big fundamental difference between junk mail and spam: who bears the cost. The junk mailers pay for the printing and sending it to my trash can. Spam is a very different story. Spammers pay very little to send out bulk E-mail. The backbone providers, ISPs and ultimately you and I pay for the bandwidth, storage and administration that is needed to handle the spam. It's fundamentally unfair that I should be required to pay for something that I don't want. It's the same logic that makes sending junk faxes illegal. It's my dime not the senders. |
