RE: [Fwd: Spammers ordered to pay $1 billion]

["Thor Larholm" <thor () pivx com>]

State law in Iowa mandates that the plaintiff can claim damages of $10
per spam message. This means that the spammer has been caught and
documented for sending 100 million spam mails - that's by no means a
large number for your typical Ralsky spammer who uses compromised
machines.

Im sure the judge is getting a cut from the settlement/paid off under
the
table.

There is a lot of that going around American Politics these days.

If its not the president, it's a judge, if its not a judge, it's a
senator.

Blah blah...

Although spam sucks, there is something real fishy about that settlement
award.


Just my 2centz.

Happy Holiday's!

Indeed! If it will hold after the appeal.
Thing is, the spammers are not there to be found for paying, so they 
might not exist for appealing. Meaning this might become a real legal 
precedence.. so maybe there will even be a second.
