FTC Porn Spam Regulation Now in Effect

Posted by michael on from the kmail-filter-already-added dept.

gManZboy writes "The AP (through Yahoo) is reporting that the FTC is now requiring that all sexually explicit spam carry the wholly original 'SEXUALLY-EXPLICIT:' moniker in the subject line. I don't know why the porn industry is complaining about this, it seems like now everyone who really wants porn spam (not I!) can finally create a filter that delivers it to their inbox, highlighted, and bolded!" The FTC's regulation is available, and so is Slashdot's earlier story.

    "I would like to say that we will start bombing in 15 minutes." that'll teach the .CXs and .DEs to not porm-spam, and insure everybody respects the government of the US....

    I don't mind if someone sends me spam with free pictures of big titties included. I hate it when they try to sell me viagra or some "All Natural Penis Enlargement" crap.

    I like my dick the way it is, and it works just fine. I have no complaint about free titty porn.
