(Law) Wisconsin spam bill
Senators Brett Davis and Ted Kanavas have put forward a Can-Spam bill for Wisconsin. Given my ignorance of all things legislative at state level, I have no idea whether this is just PR or will actually get passed into law.
Interesting to note though that it proposes banning "the manufacturing, sale, or marketing of software that can be used for the purpose of 'farming' e-mail addresses" (presumebly meaning extractor software, but might some legitimate email tools fall under this?).
It also includes a provision granting legal immunity to ISPs who "in good faith, block legitimate e-mails in their effort to block SPAM."
