The Nevada state Senate has introduced a bill that would make sending
unsolicited ads directly to e-mail accounts a misdemeanor. "Most e-mail
users pay for their service, so unsolicited e-mail is like receiving direct
mail with postage due," says the Senate's majority leader, who notes the
bill is modeled on a previous measure that bans unsolicited advertising over
fax machines. California, Virginia and Connecticut are considering similar
measures, but the Nevada legislature is widely viewed as closest to passing
the ban. (St. Petersburg Times 3 Mar 97)
