Where can I find current laws regarding spam?
Rules regarding unsolicited email
All this spam -- the email kind, not the tinned meat product -- is driving me crazy. Aren't there some laws against spam? Where can I find them?
For laws against Internet spamming (sending uninvited direct-marketing emails), you'll have to look state by state. Nineteen states have passed laws on the subject, but only California and Washington state have passed tough anti-spam laws. Federal laws have been proposed but have not been enacted. For more information, see the Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial Email website (www.cauce.org) or Junkbusters (www.junkbusters.com).
