the government is beginning to squeeze hard on our freedoms...and it sucks...i feel like every which way i turn there are more and more restrictions on our freedoms nowadays.
You don't have the freedom to spam. This is incentive to keep your systems secure.

I applaud the government for this effort , although I think the law is very weak overall. I hope the FBI/FTC does come knocking on GFY members who spam and profit from SPAM like SPONSORS and WEBHOSTS who are ALSO liable....
