You may be perfectly content using hotmail and the like to message your buddy's the latest gotse pictures you have found to whack off to but some of us have real business to do and spam costs us thousands of dollars to deal with.
These are used by botnets, usually the user has no idea this is running on their PC. It is time to hold these idiots accountable for the damage they cause.
If I can sue someone for hitting my car why can't I sue them for spamming me?
Both where caused by incompetence and cost me time and money.
So why should a tax be imposed on all customers? Ofcom is stupid and a waste of time, they're ruining the UK TV market by allowing more frequent adverts and now this. I agree, Failed business shoulden't be allowed to use tax to survive they should die out like any normal business.
And I don't even hate "spam" like apparently the rest of you do. What you call "spam", I call "messages that give me info on the latest products, technologies, and business modesl." You want less of it? I want MORE of it. Your small dick is your own business your free to buy those pills all you want
But why should the rest of us have to put up with Spam we don't find it useful and it costs us allot of money?
Surely a spammer pays for 50% of the cost of the bandwidth, since they pay their ISP just as you do. No they don't pay nothing to send me spam.
If they ever did pay anything they would set there mail server up in Europe where bandwidth is dirt cheap an email me in Australia where the bandwidth is bloody expensive and then they profit from this exercise.
I pay for them to make a profit.

Oh I forgot to mention I have to download the email from my server so I've already used triple the bandwidth they have.
It's actually worrying to see that such extreme measures are even being considered, in the present and future world access to the internet is as necessary as access to electricity or water, how can the record industry make politicians even consider depriving people of such a vital mean for communication and access to information. Because the record industry is a bunch of greedy self serving wankers.
You can even sue Google for not removing the footage, after you asked them to remove it. It is normal practice for allot of companies to end communication once legal threats are made.
You could even give the recipient a short message saying, "xyz@abc.com sent you a message that was marked as spam. Do you know this person and want to accept messages from them in the future?"
So instead of 10thousand spams I get 10thousand short messages?

Blacklist that mail server tightening the spam filter only increases a chance of false positive.
So?
Its still costing me physical money.

If someone emails you an illegal file are you guilty for accepting it?
Thats not a google link
Where is the house on street view?
Isn't it strange that no actually evidence can be found just photos provided by the plaintiff
from TFA
"You can test this by sending an email to a bogus address in either of the domains"
Will abuse@googlegroups.com do?
~Dan
Not to mention its pretty rude like "I don't give a fuck" attitude.
It's pretty obvious this was a stuffup
It's not trespassing or can you be sued for walking upto someone's front door?
You must not get many visitors.
I agree it would have been in the photos and if there are no photos then theres no problem.
Where's the evidence?
I wan't a link to prove these photo's exist and I coulden't find one in TFA
I don't use gmail but I still get their shit as a result.
Go after their ISP's and take the idiots to court.
Cat and mouse games are stupid. You think we woulden't take spammers to court if we could?
They did fuck all about it!
I was still able to register with gmail after they knew the captcha had been cracked.
So instead of 10thousand spams I get 10thousand short messages?
I can't say I'm optomistic
