Anti Spam Legislation

I doubt I will be able to blog teh results of the Civil Unions Bill 1st reading vote until this evening as I am helping chair a Government and InternetNZ workshop on legislative options for dealing with spam.

Should be a good day with around 70 people attending. Had very pleasant night out with the Australian Government spekaers last night!

If anyone is interested the workshop is being webcast.

People may also be interested in this story in the Herald about the latest anti spam proposals from Microsoft and AOL. I have some reservations about the side effects of these proposals.
