Re: [Asrg] Opt-out lists and legislation

Using offshore contractors -- or USian contractors with offshore
sending hosts -- to send your spam, however, does not.   And that's
already the case in many of the big spamhaus cases (e.g. Alan Ralsky).

Ralsky is inside US jurisdiction, right?

It would be particularly difficult to craft legislation that _didn't_
cover everyone involved in a spam, whether the spammer itself, or the
spammed-for person or...  If only by invoking "conspiracy to commit"...

It would be my opinion that any legislation broad enough to cover everyone
even with 'conspiracy to commit' would then be struck down as unconstitutional

by the U.S. supreme Court just like COPA just died
