The legal system can not remedy the problems of the internet, period. When it has to come to that, then we are saying we are technically incapable in handling our own networks and affairs. If you want to ruin something good with incompetance and bad decision process then we might as well pull the plug and go home. The politicians and the control freaks win and the 1st amendment then will be dead for sure. Henry R. Linneweh Barry Shein wrote:

The legal system has failed, utterly, on this one, so it's not surprising that more and more people are taking it into their own hands. A legal system works only so long as people have faith in its sincere interest in enforcing the rights of honest and decent people.
There really are two terrorist groups here. Spammers and nti-Spammers.
That's like saying people defending their properties are as bad as people they're defending against, that's moral confusion.
Remember that most spammers are not selling anything, they're just maliciously trying to disrupt things, and have found a way to practice their sociopathic sickness apparently outside the reach of law enforcement.
There are good and honest people working very hard to provide internet services, and then there are spammers who skulk in the shadows bombarding systems with forged mail addresses hiding their identities etc.
Anyone who equates these two groups needs to have their heads examined and the malignant moral relativism tumors removed.
