Spiro Spammer sends millions of e-mails a day asking people to donate to his college tuition fund. Oddly enough, many people do. Everything in the e-mails is accurate (including his 1.9 GPA). Which of the following statements is true (a) Spiro has violated the CAN-SPAM Act because he has sent unsolicited commercial emails. (b) Spiro has violated the CAN-SPAM Act if he has not offered recipients an opportunity to unsubscribe. (c) Spiro has violated the CAN-SPAM Act because he is asking for money. (d) Spiro has violated the CAN-SPAM Act unless the recipients have granted permission to him to send these emails.

Spiro Spammer has violated the CAN-SPAM Act if he has not offered recipients an opportunity to unsubscribe

Explanation:

a) option is incorrect because the can-spam act doesn't punish unsolicited commercial e-mails.

c) is incorrect because the CAN_SAPM act doesn't punish the act of asking for money. On the other hand, if he would have sold something or made the promise to sell something and not fulfilling it that would have been a violation of the act.

d) It is incorrect because there is no intrusion or rule broken for sending e-mails if they were not solicited.

However, b) is correct because everything someone sends an unsolicited email that has a chain to keep being delivered, the sender needs to include a way to unsubscribe to that chain of messages.
