Re: I for one...

Illegal? Depends on how you read the CAN-SPAM Act. In many ways, CAN-SPAM set guidelines on what companies must to do/not do when sending emails... in short, they regulated spam and thus by extension, 'legalized' it. So long as you comply with CAN-SPAM, you can send 'spam' all day long.

If you read enough stories here on BBR, you will find we have some seriously ignorant politicians trying to write laws that related to technology... and they seem to fail most of the time. The CAN-SPAM is just one example of the complete failure of technology related legislation.

Wait, is an ACT really a law?

I support our British cousins fighting the good fight (through all that fog and bangers!).

A pint for ye!

When it is the name of a bill presented to the U.S. President for signature, and when the U.S. President signs the bill, thus enacting the legislation, then: Yes.
