They Should Have Given Them the Death Penalty
Internet service provider Earthlink has won its lawsuit against Damon DeCrescenzo and David Burstyn, a.k.a. the "Alabama Spammers," accused of sending massive amounts of spam e-mail. The court ordered that the defendants are forbidden to send any more unsolicited e-mail and are required to pay Earthlink an undisclosed amount. Meanwhile, the true victims--Internet users--continue to get a hundred unwanted e-mails a day for Viagra and fake Rolex watches. Source
