France Launches Anti-Spam Platform

njondet writes "French-law.net reports that the French government has just launched 'Signal Spam', an anti-spam platform created in association with public entities and private companies, such as Microsoft. Internet users will be able to report spam messages by mailing them to this platform which will act as a centralised monitor of spamming activities. The platform will generate a blacklist and help initiate prosecutions against spammers."

    How about "fire cruise missiles!" (since France does not have Chuck Norris)

    Would those be Tom Cruise missiles?

    They are at it again. Snob, uppish, wants whole world do things in their own way, learn french and whatnot. They isolate themselves, dont join in the international community, and they want whole 250+ countries in the world to listen to what they say.

    Now they found a "anti spam" organization as if anti spam organizations do not exist. In at most 2 years i assure you they will be proposing laws to eu that every eu member should mandatorily use their anti spam shit. This is the french way.

    You know what fucking morons, we dont care about your delusions de grandeur. Shove your "own way" up your own arses. Theres spamcop, we will use it, and we will ignore whatever shit you "invent" as if new.
