Your Favorite Adult Companies Give Up Info To Gov
I was reading over the FTC?s website about this spam crap that recently took place. What I found was mind blowing. This isn?t a bash against the companies that settled but it is fucked up. They agreed to some very fucked up terms. Companies that settled are: (BangBros.com Inc, RK NetMedia Inc, Ox Ideas, Inc) (MD Media) (APC Entertainment Inc)(Pure Marketing Solutions LLC) (Internet Matrix Technology )
You can read it yourself: Go to July 20th. http://www.ftc.gov/os/2005/07/index.htm#20 Read the Stipulated Order ? Sections 4 & 5 Here is just a cut of a few things they must provide: ?A list that identifies every person who is marketing or promoting, through commercial email messages, any goods or services of a Defendant since entry of this Order;? ? U.S. mailers you are fucked, complaint or not. ?Accounting records that reflect revenue generated by sales to individuals through an affiliate program and corresponding disbursements to participants Defendant?s affiliate program on an individual basis, including copies recently deposited check for each such participant paid by check;? ? The rest of us. You should read everything they have to give up. And you should thank the companies that said NO to these agreements: (T.J. Web Productions LLC) (Cyberheat Inc.) (Impulse Media Group) So the GOV can?t get a list of people to bust for 2257 because of the FSC, but now they have a list, a rather large list. -------------------------------------- Some info about spam and MicroShit?s BS company.. Paragaph Cuts From This Article By NWSource "Microsoft provided help with the FTC's investigation upon the agency's request, said Microsoft attorney Aaron Kornblum. It offered evidence and analysis of e-mails received in more than 130,000 free Hotmail accounts set up several years ago as "traps," he said." ?The traps have been in place since 2003? ?The company has also filed more than 100 lawsuits against spammers and 119 against so-called phishers? ?Kornblum said Microsoft's 12 full-time Internet-safety attorneys, investigators and paralegals first collect evidence?

Well at least it says they only have to give up information on affiliates who promote via email, not all the affiliates.
But yeah, props to the companies who are fighting this. |

Just so you know some of the agreements are different. I won't call out names but this is part of some peoples agreements.
"A list of all names under which each Defendant did or currently does business since entry of this Order;"

I told you Tax evasion is so much easier then going for a obscenity charge. All those people that want to get paid by epassporte who see it as a way to get around the system. The system will find you ,they always do.

There will be a TON of irs fallout from this....this is how they will tie everything together....you are talking about a list of ALL affiliates of some pretty big proggies...AND COPIES OF THEIR LAST PAYMENTS!
Which may mean cancelled checks which have the individuals bank account #'s on them.....pretty easy to follow that info......bad times for the larger affiliates who promoted these programs...... |

Knowing this is ROUND 1 kinda worries me.. The FTC IS going after more companies, which means more information, more settlements, etc.. I wonder who is next to fight?

I pay my company taxes on every dime I earn so I'm not worried.. Check, Wires, Epassport Payments, etc.. But I guess I can see were some webmasters should be worried. I do know of a few "smaller" guys that just pocket the money.. Looks like the IRS will be busy.

I'm not particularly worried. So the FTC has my address now, big deal. I'm not in violation of any 2257's, I don't mail and I'm paying my taxes. The IRS had this information anyways, so if there was any actions the FTC wanted to pursue, it just took a court order to the IRS to release it. They just simplified the process as far as I'm concerned.

I think the mailers are the only ones who have anything to worry about. Afterall, they are the reason for this whole FTC complaint. So the government has all our info now? Well if you live in the US and pay taxes, the government already has all your info anyways.

so let me ask you something
FTC will start an investigation on your company,it will request the info of your mailers and you won't pass them? yeah right If you mailed in the past most likely FTC has already your info from past investigated companies. |
