Class Action Lawsuit Against Spammer

sfjoe writes "California-based spammer eTracks is being sued by the law firm, Morrison and Foerster (who have a very cool homepage). M & F's press release says they are "...seeking other relief, including attorneys' fees and statutorily authorized damages of $50 for each email delivered in violation of the law, up to $25,000 per day". California's anti-spam law has already held up under appeals court scrutiny so this may very well be a major setback to the spam industry." I think spammers should be forced to pay by donating an organ for each forged header.

Ok, I can understand slashdot reposting a story that was reported, say, two months ago. But this story was posted _yesterday_. You can tell they're the same story just from the three line blurb on the front page.

Sigh.
