Forty Percent of All Email is Spam

This is a decent summary of the SPAM issue.

It's about commerce, it's not about speech. Jason Catlett, the founder of Junkbusters Corp., an anti-spam and privacy advocacy group said it well: "Spam is postage-due marketing".

Since the anti-junk fax law passes constitutional muster, I can't see why an anti-spam law couldn't do the same.
