It's good that they've caught up with vermin like this, but sticking him in prison is a total waste of time (and money, especially for up to 26 years). They should use his "talents" in some other way, ie to help the community etc.... |

The problem is: Where has him been purchasing the lists from?

This type of non-violent crime should be dealt with by large amounts of community service and stiff fines. But, hey, whatever gets that at this point at least.. |

From where and by how does his company collect these email lists? I think it's an issue to prevent the personal(although maybe not private) information from falling into the wrong hands. |

From gullible people who turn them over willingly. Ads, email to a friend, tickle surveys, register to watch this porn video, you name it. Same people who send money to scammers over seas and try to log into fake websites thinking it's their bank sending them notice. Awhile back had to tell someone not to give out my address to websites. Just copy and paste the link to an already open email window. (of course when malware makes it onto their PC it copies their email address books and they get it anyway :roll: ) I hope he enjoys all the *enile enlargements all his jail buddies have purchased from his emails. |

Some through legitimate channels...others through semi-legal means such as cookies, etc. Today hacking, e-mail interception, open wireless networks, and bots are largely responsible. And law enforcement is way behind.... |

And law enforcement is way behind.... It doesn't help though in the UK when the top 3 ISP's (by size, not quality) are apparently signing upto "Phorm" http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/02/29/phorm_roundup/http://www.phorm.com/Lot's of people aren't happy with this, although some ISP's say the Default will be Opted Out rather than automatically Opted In. OK this isn't about Spam, but it's yet another money making idea at the expense of the inexperienced internet user. No doubt it'll be hacked or it'll be found that certain info that shouldn't be stored is being stored etc, like often is found with these type of things. Spam is a bloody menace, but it doesn't help with legit companies using things such as Phorm that effectively eavesdrop. Shame the internet doesn't have some sort of agreed, self policed or even law protecting the privacy of individuals by default (except for law enforcement enquiries). |
