Thats my point. Has anyone mailed your site Lenny?? Your a bright guy, if they did you would know instantly. As far as mailing pages?? Most would use a landing page I agree. but if you get 12,000 hits to your website in 24hours from

are you not going to know?? Wouldn't you at least question it? c'mon playing dumb isn't going to cut it any longer guys.

It's not the end, it's just time to clean up our acts, and if we don't we will pay for it.


* interesting note, that url came from a spam to my 7year old sons KidsAol account.
Ok but YOU are still not getting MY point.
Sure, if someone was mailing my site I would know it, and then I would termintate their account and not pay them.
And then the FTC could STILL come after me....because the mail has already been sent, it's already ended up in some kids inbox and their parents have complained to whatever government agency.

In this scenario I'm held liable, even though I never authorized the mailing, never paid for the mailing, had nothing whatsoever to do with the mailing.

The FTC seems to want to go after the recipients of the traffic rather than the people who actually sent out the mail. There will definitely be some innocent companies caught up in all of this.
