SpamCop Gets Restraining Order On
Spammer's Temporary Restraining Order 05/12/2004 02:08 PM
Well, that certainly was quick. Yesterday we wrote about the tempo rary restraining order against SpamCop from reporting any spam from OptInRealBig to ISPs other than OptIn's own, and today that temporary restraining order was dissolved, as it appears the lawyers for IronPort/SpamCop made a compelling argument that OptInRealBig wasn't telling the full story. The judge admits that: "The legal issues are more complicated than they originally appeared." The hearing on the case has also been moved up a few days and will be held early next week.

SpamCop 05/11/2004 07:36 PM
A couple weeks back we wrote about how Scott Richter, who runs the well known spam operation OptInRealBig was suing SpamCop for damaging his reputation. Now, a court has issued a temporary restraining order against SpamCop saying they cannot send complaints about OptInRealBig to other ISPs and says they cannot make anonymous complaints. The restraining order is only good until May 20th, when SpamCop will respond in court - so it's not a huge deal since it's for so short a time period. However, the anonymity question is a bit one, since many people use SpamCop to report spam assume they are reporting spam anonymously. Again, like other cases, I wonder why SpamCop/IronPort could possibly be at fault. They're only making it easier to report potential spam. The people actually doing the reporting are the ones who are actually accusing OptIn of anything - which is probably why OptIn wants them revealed as well.

Spammer Suing SpamCop

Spammer Suing SpamCop 04/30/2004 04:13 PM
A year ago, a group of spammers anonymously teamed up with a lawyer to sue a bunch of anti-spam groups. After those anti-spam groups fought back, the spammers eventually dropped their case. However, now we've got a similar situation. Scott Richter, the well known spammer behind OptInRealBig, is now suing IronPort, the folks who bought SpamCop last year. He's asking for $1 million in damages, saying that SpamCop has damaged his reputation. Has he given any thought to the idea that sending spam may have damaged his reputation? Among the many charges filed against SpamCop, Richter included Negligent Interference with Prospective Economic Advantage, Unfair Competition and Interference with Contractual Relationship.

Judge Slaps Down Spammer Who Is Suing
SpamCop 06/28/2004 08:02 PM
In the ongoing ridiculousness concerning the spammer who sued SpamCop, a judge has denied Scott Richter's request for an injunction against SpamCop, noting that by simply forwarding on email messages as a complaint, SpamCop is protected via the CDA, which says that service providers aren't responsible for the content sent through their services (the same reason that AOL shouldn't be sued when someone uses their service to do something illegal -- oh, whoops< /a>). However, the judge also went further pointing out that even if they weren't covered by the CDA, she saw no reason to grant the injunction. She said Richter and OptInRealBig failed to prove its case that SpamCop was in any way libeling them, since SpamCop never states that their reports are definitely spam. Also, there was no evidence that the company acted with "malice" against OptIn. The judge also denied Richter's request for emails from SpamCop claiming that giving Richter those addresses would be the equivalent of: "one who either intentionally or unintentionally sends pornography to minors, who then asks for a list of those minors so he will not continue to commit the crime."
