Can SPAM Act

I’ve recently had to read the Can SPAM act as it applies to the an organization I’m part of. Besides getting a wicked headache there’s a few interesting bits in the law.

The short of it is that this law won’t change much. In particular there’s section 10. (9) (c) that pretty much makes the whole thing pointless. There’s a lot more to the the law and a whole bit about installing software (that includes cookies, Javascript, and such) but my concern was about sending e-mails.
