California Wins Legal Case Against
Spammers
10/28/2003 11:07 PM

Two LA spammers were ordered to pay $2 million and received various business restrictions in Santa Clara County Superior Court, this past Friday. This is the largest judgment won by government prosecutors against senders of unsolicited e-mail. The spammers are also the object of a Federal Trade Commission suit; however, both legal cases are civil suits, so there's not much chance that the spammers will see the inside of a jail cell anytime soon.

Screenshot The legal case management system is a Web application aimed for use by not-for-profit legal advice centers. It supports recording case information and its follow-ups, which can then be used to generate reports.
License: GNU General Public License (GPL)
Changes:
An important privacy fix was made: an .htaccess file was added to protect the log files generated by LCM, since they include most of the SQL queries made by users. Many bugfixes were made for things such as case deletion, print view, and error management. Reporting options were added for case stages and their conclusions, which allows a relation to be made with the type of case.

Spam Now Legal In The US


Spam Now Legal In The US 12/16/2003 01:47 PM
As expected, President Bush signed the so-called "CAN SPAM" bill into law today, effectively legalizing spam. What the law does is make sure that anyone now has the right to spam you legitimately, so long as they provide contact information and a way to opt-out. This means, the floodgates will open as all those out-of-work telemarketers now have a new job: spamming you. Wasn't the law supposed to stop spam? Well, the one anti-spam idea in the bill is that it bans people from faking headers for the sake of spamming - which would make a difference if spammers actually cared about the law. They've shown already that they're not too concerned, and thanks to their ability to fake headers and route their spam through many different computers, it will be very difficult to track them down. So, now we'll be getting much more "legitimate" spam, and just as much, if not more, fraudulent spam. Why is this a good law again?

Most carriers provide some way of translating your phone number into an email address (often something along the lines of yourphonenumber@mail.yourcarrier.com), and this ruling only applies to those accounts... More to the point, however, the FCC made it very clear that this ruling means absolutely nothing when it comes to SMS spam.
