Make lawsuits, not spam
In an opinion piece for BetaNews.com, I offer a way for Lycos to make amends for its failed anti-spam screensaver project. The article, A Legal Cure for Spam Rage, argues that the U.S. Congress should give individual citizens the right to sue spammers under CAN-SPAM. To make this happen, Lycos should lobby for such a "right to private action" amendment, and open a clearinghouse with information on filing private, federal lawsuits against junk emailers.
