Nigel Roberts, jedan od malobrojnih stanovnika Alderneya (jedan od Kanalskih otoka između Velike Britanije i Francuske), tužio je tvrtku Media Logistics jer mu je slala smeće na privatni e-mail račun. I tužbu je dobio - optužena tvrtka uopće se nije branila i sudac je presudio u korist tužitelja. Inače, prema europskim zakonima donesenim prije tri godine tvrtke se može globiti zbog slanja neželjenih e-mailova.

Media Logistics je tvrtka za oglašavanje sa sjedištem u Stirlingshireu i slučaj nije komentirala u medijima. Pristala je Nigelu Robertsu platiti 270 funti odštete te 30 funti sudskih troškova, a to je "zaslužila" slanjem oglasa vezanih uz unajmljivanje automobila i za tvrtku koja se bavi slanjem telefaksova. Iako se ovih 300 funti kazne čini malo, osuda ipak spamerima odašilje određenu poruku, a to je da korisnici ne moraju biti zatrpani elektroničkom poštom koju nisu tražili. Nadamo se će, ohrabrenim ovim slučajem, i drugi ljudi tužiti spamere ne bi li konačno jednog dana spam postao prije iznimka nego sastavni dio našeg života.

Palac gore.

A VICTORY OVER SPAM

This is one man who did something about it...

A British businessman has won what is believed to be the first victory of its kind by claiming damages from a company which sent him e-mail spam.

Nigel Roberts, who lives in Alderney in the Channel Islands, took action against Media Logistics UK over junk e-mails in his personal account. Under new European laws, companies can be sued for sending unwanted e-mails.

It was a small but significant victory - Media Logistics agreed to pay GBP 270 compensation to Mr Roberts, who runs an internet business.

Three years ago the EU passed an anti-spam law, the directive on privacy and telecommunications, which gave individuals the right to fight the growing tide of unwanted e-mail by allowing them to claim damages.

Mr Roberts received unwanted e-mail adverts for a contract car firm and a fax broadcasting business and decided to take action against the company. The company filed an acknowledgement of the claim at Colchester County Court but did not defend it and a judge ruled in favour of Mr Roberts.

In an out-of-court agreement Media Logistics agreed to pay Mr Roberts damages plus his GBP 30 filing fee. Roberts had limited his claim to a maximum of GBP 300 in order to qualify to file it as a small claim.

He said: "This may be a tiny victory but perhaps now spammers will begin to realise that people don't have to put up with their e-mail in-boxes being filled with unwanted junk."

Pa i nije neka lova,...,nije nikakva, al bolje ista nego nista.

Nije veliki iznos, nekima to ne znači puno, a nekima nije malo - glavno da su takvi slučajevi sve češći...

Nadam se da me nisi krivo shvatio, 300 funti je fina lova, nama obicnim smrtnicima (poseban pozdrav za studente

),a za firmu, to je nista. Vekika se lova vrti oko toga. Naravno, drago mi je da se osobe, firme i svi koji se bave spramovanjem sankcionisu zbog svojih postupaka, ali 300 funti jednostavno nije dovoljno.

Kada bi cena za pravna lica bila izmedju 5.000 i 25.000, a za fizička od 100 do 1.000 funti video i sledeći put spamera da li ce to isto da pokuša!

Eh kad bi - to bi bilo super. Samo, ipak o tome možemo samo sanjati, barem još nekoliko sljedećih godina. I ovako su se spammeri počeli žaliti kako im je posao sve teži, takve kazne bi ih dotukle.

Bas tako, o tom sam i pricao. Kad takvi likovi plate kaznicu od 300 funti kladim se da umiru od smeha kada uzmu digitron u ruke.
