Shock! US anti-spam law fails to make impact... 


Anti-spam law makes no difference:

"US legislation designed to stem the tide of junk e-mails has had little impact on spam, say experts.

US e-mail filtering firm Postini said the Can-Spam Act had only made a slight dent in the amount of unwanted mail. "

Wow. Maybe not all spam comes from the US. Maybe, people in Russia sending this stuff out couldn't care less what a US court thinks about it. Maybe the spammers in the US feel pretty safe as there are just no bodies in place to actually enforce this law. Maybe it was a pathetic attempt to curry favour with office workers/semi-capable computer users.

As if this was ever, EVER going to work. Jeez.
