Posted by michael on from the enlarge-your-jail-sentence-now dept.

An anonymous reader writes "ZDNet News reports: '...the FBI told Congress on Thursday that it has 'identified over 100 significant spammers' so far and is targeting 50 of the most noxious for potential prosecution later this year.' and that '...an 'initiative is being projected for later this year in which it is anticipated that criminal and civil actions under the Can-Spam Act of 2003 will be included.'"

    You could always run away from society and live like this Father and Daughter did for four years. No mass media, no electricity, just books and a camp in Oregon's largest city park. There are PLENTY of open spaces left in the Pacific Northwest where this would be easy to do. They'd still be there if it wasn't for a busybody of a hiker turning them in to the police.
