UK ISPs are adopting a code of practice that will enable them to shut down e-commerce sites found to have sent spam, regardless of how and from where the spam was sent.
The government's recently-tabled anti-spam legislation has drawn some fiery responses, with lobby groups and politicians tackling both the Bills and each other in statements over the past few days.
Australia's legislation against spam has fared better in the opinions of anti-spam activists than its international counterparts.
New anti-spam was introduced into the House of Representatives today that allows for penalties of up to AU$1.1 million per day for sending spam, and Senator Alston has called on the United States to follow suit with similar legislation.
