Bush signs bill aimed at controlling spam
Critics of the bill, however, argue that its effects will be mostly ceremonial. Bulk e-mail operators outside the U.S. will be beyond the law’s jurisdiction, and the act overrides state antispam laws that are in some areas stronger than the new federal regulations.
The critics are most likely right but it feels like a good first step. Someone has to make it officially illegal first.
