Re: I don't care what kind of spam it is... said by Die Spammers: Clark252 wrote Kinda like the way the New York Times isn't violating your right to free speech/press when they decline to print your 10,000 word letter to the editor on the front page. The GOVERNMENT can't stop them from doing it, but their accountants sure can. Spam = theft. I only wish this guy & I both lived in Chicago - then I could vote against him two or three times.
Agreed - to a point. The NY Times [or any other media]has accountants and/or editors that can knock down things people send in which would not be money-making. But when you get SPAM, YOU are losing bandwith [which could be considered money, since you pay for your bandwith] and have no way of editing it out
Maybe when you join a political party, you should have the option to "opt-in" for e-mail from that party. Or at one time [maybe when you go to vote?] , you should have the option to "opt-in" for any political e-mail. These are only suggestions off the top of my head, but we should have some choice here!! |
