From Reuters: Fla. attorney
general says his e-mails aren’t spam
MIAMI (Reuters) – Florida’s attorney general has spearheaded an aggressive campaign
against unsolicited e-mails, or spam. But as a candidate for governor, he appears
to be generating some unwanted Internet clutter himself.Charlie Crist was a staunch defender of a tough anti-spam law passed by the state
legislature last year, under which violators can be fined up to $500 for every e-mail
they send.But a report in Thursday’s St. Petersburg Times said Crist, a Republican gubernatorial
candidate, had annoyed some residents of the state by sending them unwanted e-mails
promoting his candidacy and soliciting campaign donations.
Do as I say, not blah, blah, blah….
