IAR: Missouri Files First Spam Suits
Having passed an anti-spam law two months ago, Missouri broke the precedent set by other states by actually bringing charges against two Florida (of course) spammers. This case may provide the first test of inter-state spam law enforcement, as the dozen or so other states have yet to file charges based on their own laws. The constitutionality of this cross-state regulation is, as a result, untested, although similar regulations have passed muster in the telemarketing realm.
