So you think that there is no need for global regulation of spam? I
think that there is no way that a problem like spam can be solved at the
national level, given the scale and nature of the problem. IMHO, it is
useless to have 150 different national spam regulations when, say, a
U.S. spammer will use an open relay in Korea to spam people in 50
different countries in all continents; it will just let you lost in
cross-border legal procedures while the spammer has all the time to
finish the job and disappear.
