Alan Ralsky Gripes About Can Spam Act
fdiskne1 writes "The New York Times has an interview with Alan Ralsky, commonly known as the world's worst spammer. CNet News.com is running the same interview. Ralsky admits using open relays and virus-infected PCs and not honoring unsubscribe lists. He complains about having to comply with the new CAN-SPAM law will cost him an additional $3000 in costs to set up a genuine opt-out list. Anyone here feel sorry for him? Okay, I'm biased, but I can't wait until we see him in prison."
There in there with their peers. If you're not the type of person that would rape someone just because you haven't gotten laid in a month, you're probably not the kind of person that would end up in that type of jail.
It's the society they want, we're just giving it to them.

I can't believe the stupidity of the slashdoters who think pirating music is ok, but receiving spam email is some terrible criminal offense. Can't wait to see some guy end up in jail for sending emails? Ridiculous!
If you want an open internet then you take the good with the bad. But you don't want an open interent. You want an internet where daddy can make the bad spam go bye-bye. You want an end to the arms race that pushes innovation because you are a tired, tired bitch.
I, for one, DELETE THE SPAM! Oh my god, how horrifying this work is, how terrible, how back breaking, how I scream at night: SPAM SPAM SPAM!!
No. Get real -- It's easy!
And if one of my addresses becomes unusuable, I'll get another! Wow, that costs me an arm and a leg. That's like murdering my soul! How terrible and criminal those spammers are!
Uhhhhhhh... Get a life!
You whiners are just like the people who want to lock down the internet because some kid might use it to download porn, or because some people download music and music, or because you might learn how to make a methlab! You are the same, the same, the same. You suck, you suck, you suck.
I can't wait until YOU go to prison!
I'd rather see him dead.
