An anti-spam company has purchased an early anti-spam patent, which they now hope to use to collect a bit of cash from plenty of other anti-spam firms. The concept seems ridiculously obvious: monitor email, note emails that appear to be the same, create a signature for that email and use it to pick out other messages that match that signature. Why this should be patentable in the first place is unclear. In the meantime, it's just going to make it more difficult and more expensive to use this obvious technique to stop spam.

As if the upcoming standar ds battle over authenticated email wasn't enough, now someone is claiming that Micros oft stole his patent-pending sender authentication concept, which he also named CallerID for email. He's also accusing them of trademark violation, which may be about as far as his claim can realistically go. First off, without a granted patent, his claims are a bit weak, but even if he got that patent, it seems pretty clear by the fact that just about everyone seems to be coming up with the same idea independently that this is hardly an original idea. The guy in question, realizing that no lawyers seem willing to take on his case, is planning, instead to go after lots of smaller companies to "build up a war chest." Great. Yet another person claiming to hold intellectual property who will now use it to sue other companies that are actually trying to innovate and who clearly never "stole" his ideas, but came up with them independently. Apparently, this is what the Patent and Trademark Office consider "innovation."

Anti-Spam Legislation Makes Spam More

04/29/2004 01:28 PM
Aren't unintended consequences wonderful? Now that anti-spam legislation is becoming popular, one result is that spammers aren't wasting time with just spamming mortgage offers and ways to buy Viagra. Instead, now that they realize they're definitely on illegal ground, they're moving more towards malicious attack spam, including phishing attacks and trojan horse attacks. In other words, if they're going to break the law with spam, they figure they might as well go all out.

Report from the spam/anti-spam summit


Report from the spam/anti-spam summit 04/09/2004 04:05 PM
Danny O'Brien has written up one of the first summits between spammers and spam-fighters for the Guardian. It's a great piece.
Surprisingly, no such shootings occur. It's oddly intimate, watching the spammers and the anti-spammers mill around each other like this. It feels like a temporary ceasefire in a vicious war that to most of us seems to be a stalemate...

Over the past year, though, a series of meetings arranged by a trusted figure in the American anti-spam community, Anne Mitchell, have been slowly bringing the two sides together. These mini-conferences, held under the banner of the Institute for Spam and Internet Public Policy, have mostly been between the highest-ranking ISPs - MSN, AOL - and commercial email marketers of the most squeaky clean kind. Initially in secret, these days the meetings are more public.

Anti-Spammers Don't Need CAN-SPAM


Anti-Spammers Don't Need CAN-SPAM 09/25/2004 12:00 AM
While the CAN-SPAM act was meant to stop spam, it obviously hasn't yet. Although it's pretty easy to point out some of CAN-SPAM's flaws, it's perhaps better that some anti-spam activists are actually taking spammers to court -- though mostly citing pre-existing laws regarding false advertising or deception. Armed with these older and easier-to-understand laws, the Informal Coalition of Private Anti-spam Litigants (ICPAL) and the Institute for Spam and Internet Public Policy (ISIPP) have helped some businesses and devout anti-spammers take some sleazy mass emailers to court and win a few sizable monetary judgments. Still, the strategy for these anti-spammers is to remain informal but organized, so that spammers can't retaliate. However, these anti-spammers also say they're not in it for the money, and some have refused to settle out of court on principle. Given that some of the spammers are hard to actually find, much less extract damages from, it looks like these vigilante organizations may remain small and informal until perhaps some bounties are put out on spammers heads.

Spam vs. Anti-Spam: the war escalates! 06/22/2004 02:47 AM
Every time someone introduces a new anti-spam technique, some wily spammer devises a workaround. This myriad of actions and reactions is going to tie our e-mail system in knots. The only real solution to unsolicited mail is to eliminate the problem altogether by stopping spam at the source. To this end, the folks at ImagineNation have proposed an eMstamp solution and have set out to publicly answer the many questions that the proposal has raised. [PRWEB Jun 22, 2004]
