Brielle Bruns writes "Yesterday, Judge James B. Zagel dismissed claims against Comcast by e360. In the decision, the judge says: 'Plaintiff e360Insight, LLC is a marketer.

Anti-Spammers Win Major Court Battle

It's always good to see my inbox come out on the winning side of a court decision. Sounds like the case was fun to watch as well.
