At risk of this off-topic thread wandering even further off topic... My state, Confusion -- er, Wisconsin, recently passed a law that allows me to put my name on a list of those who don't want phone solicitation. It's a State maintained list, and there are penalties for violators. There are reasonable exceptions for non-profits and organisations with whom one already has a relationship. I'm hoping the idea spreads to all the states... though I'd hate to be in the state that passes the law last, as every telemarketer in the country bombards the citizens of Rhode Island with unsolicited sales calls. I see no reason -- except lobbyist money -- why the same thing couldn't be done regarding spam. It would have to be federal to be effective, I think.
