Text Spammer Gets Injunction, But Will
It Help? 08/30/2004 02:41 AM
Lots of folks are picking up on the story that a man accused by Verizon Wireless of sending text message spam has received a permanent injunction against sending SMS text message spam to mobile phones. However, the more important part is whether or not it matters. The guy in question seems to have disappeared. It's barely mentioned in the article, but he didn't show up at the hearing at all, and the article suggests his last known address is not valid. Basically, it sounds like the guy skipped town, or at the very least, didn't care enough to show up for a case against him. It seems unlikely he's going to let a random judge tell him to stop sending SMS spam.

Spammer, Anti-Spammer Involved In
Lawsuit Will Hold Public Debate

Spammer, Anti-Spammer Involved In
Lawsuit Will Hold Public Debate 05/20/2004 11:41 PM
Julian Haight, the founder of anti-spam service SpamCop, and Scott Richter, the founder of spamming service OptInRealBig, are currently in the middle of a fairly nasty legal battle over whether or not SpamCop can block OptIn's spam. Still, the two have agreed to appear together in public and debate the topic. Both of their lawyers say that the debate will avoid the issue of the lawsuit, but as the article points out, that seems unlikely. The thing is, in listening to what both sides have said over the years, you already know what they're going to say in this debate - and they're talking at cross purposes. The spammers focus on their right to make money, while everyone else talks about their right to be left alone. The problem with the spammers' position is that they don't have the right to make money. They have the right to try to make money, but if it involves pissing everyone off, and everyone decides to create and use filters to make email bearable again - then that's their right too.

U.S. fines Bill Gates $800,000

U.S. fines Bill Gates $800,000 05/03/2004 03:16 PM
It may just be pocket change for the richest man in the world, but Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates has been fined $800,000 by the federal government for violating an antitrust rule. Will the world's richest man feel an $800,000 fine? The technical incident has nothing to do with the government's massive antitrust battles with Microsoft (MSFT: Research, Estimates). Gates, whose fortune has been estimated at more than $40 billion, ran afoul of the Federal Trade Commission and the Justice Department's Antitrust Division for his purchases of stock in a drug company and a waste-hauling firm.

Spam Fines For Singapore

Spam Fines For Singapore 05/25/2004 02:49 PM
If you thought US laws to prevent spam were ineffective and misguided, this link should be amusing. Singapore is considering a 58 cent fine per spam email. No details on how that fine was reached or what the definition of spam will be, but if the Singaporean government can stop spam, no one will complain. However, spammers are a notoriously difficult lot to hunt down, and maybe especially so, if the threat of caning could be an option.
