Bush administration fails again - can't stop spam. |
CHICAGO, Dec. 14 (UPI) -- The Federal Trade Commission is expected shortly to issue a report on the effectiveness of the CAN-SPAM Act, passed by Congress to combat unsolicited junk e-mail, but experts tell United Press International's The Web ahead of the report that spam continues to rapidly proliferate.
"The CAN-SPAM Act has been largely ineffective," said Edward Naughton, an intellectual-property law partner with the firm of Holland & Knight, based in Boston. "Most of the data, and my own experience, indicates that the volume of spam has increased since the statute became effective." By Gene Koprowski |
