Holding The Hot Spam Potato

http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=170852

Solutions and issues relating to spam have been covered in this blog already, but here is a novel take on the subject. Starting with the premise that most of the badness we now experience on the InterNet stems from permanently connected SOHO systems [itself something demanding of proof], the author suggests that such individuals be held legally responsible. Should that happen, those who are not motivated to use protection when computing would now have some reason to do so. Whatever one thinks of the merits of this argument, it certainly could form an interesting discussion point in any class dealing with social responsibility and computing.
