FTC: stealth enforcement or no enforcement?

2008-07-10 00:00:00 by Scott Bradner in Network World on Security

For the last few months I've been dutifully telling the Federal Trade Commission when I receive an unsolicited fax, but I've decided to stop because there seems to be no reason to keep doing so. I guess the FTC’s 1,087 or so "active employees" have better things to do than deal with this type of lawbreaker. (The FTC seems to be paying about the same level of attention to enforcing the very weak CAN-SPAM law — your tax dollars not at work.)
