Regulating Internet Abuses

"Spam - unsolicited, unwanted commercial communication, especially in bulk form - is increasingly included in the areas of concern and regulation of governments worldwide. Unfortunately, this recognized and exponentially growing menace has not yet met its regulatory match. Piecemeal controls, lack of international cooperation, and the absence of an overall policy on combating patently intrusive and unwanted messages in all channels of communication hamper the struggle." "The present volume contains eleven national reports, together with a general report, on this major problem that is presently burdening and distorting communications through the Internet. Although the reports do not follow a single pattern of exposition and citation (this is precluded by the novelty and complexity of the issues raised and their continuing evolution, the diversity of legal systems, and the constantly developing technology) they nonetheless make a major contribution to the literature on the new world of the Internet. Workers in all fields of communications, from technologists to legal practitioners and academics to administrative policymakers, will benefit from these syntheses and insights."--Jacket.
