Although responding to this message puts me back to -$.04, I will point out that the junk fax law worked pretty well. It didn't take long for people to get the point that they shouldn't be faxing lunchroom menus to everybody in their area code. The spam laws are geographically constrained and inconsistently interpreted. A federal law would have significantly greater impact. The camram stuff is a neat idea but IMO it is even less likely to succeed, since there isn't anybody with a financial incentive to make sure that it works and to drive the necessary adoptions. A micropayment option with a big backer at least has the chance to do things like pay email developers to add support for it. -- Eric A.
