SenderID forgets the fact that most legitimate email users don't use "authorized" servers, and that any new server isn't automatically a spammer. Further, there is nothing stopping an "authorized" server from getting hacked and becomming a spammer. Microsoft is trying to strongarm a bad idea. Assuming that the other free emails don't adopt the standard, I feel its doomed to die.
Wow, a bunch of 90 year old get to fuck over digital freedom, not even understanding what they are doing. If this law passes, well fuck, software'll be out two weeks later that unencodes the flag. Still, wow... it better not pass
