Most people pushing for a federal antispam law agree that legislation will not solve the problem on its own, but it could be one part of a multipronged attack that includes antispam technology and a set of standards endorsed by the e-mail marketing industry. But when participants at Wednesday's Senate hearing suggested more time was needed to come up with better legislation or to allow the e-mail marketing industry to endorse standards, CAN-SPAM sponsors Burns and Wyden protested, saying consumers are fed up with spam.
"We know that the industry is going to have to step forward," Burns said. "It is my belief that they will not until there is a national legislation that forces them to consider ... how to deal with this thing. It's time to quit beating around the bush and tell it like it is."
