IETF-Runners - Ted send out a new version of the Adverts draft,
an announcement of which I have yet to see on this list.
(Meaning probably that it bounced since the sender is
probably not subscribed.  Ted's address also seems to
not be correct, so his announcement also bounced, sigh..)

So please go to your local drafts archives and pick up
version 2 of the adverts draft

(draft-ieft-run-adverts-02.txt) and read it and let's get a discussion
going and decide if we need a meeting in Pittsburgh or whether
we're all satisfied enough with the draft to move it to RFC.

Thanks!
Sally

I think this document is in good shape.  I have some minor points
which are all appended at the end of this message.

I don't think we need to meet in Pittsburgh unless there is substantial
new work being proposed.

Thanks,

Hummm...maybve this one will work? <hopehopehope>

As I mentioned in the last announcement, all of the changes
reccommended at Washington, DC are incorporated, as far as I can tell.
If I've missed anything, please let me know.

The only thing we are missing is the inclusion of legal cites. I'm
working on that, and I'd like to get the General Counsel of AOL
involved, since they pioneered the successful lawsuit for domain-name
forgery. If anyone else has a legal resource available to them, and
can get cites of this nature, now would be the perfect time to raise
your ascii hand.

To all;

I made Donald's reccommended changes to the draft, and eliminated some
of the excessive blank lines (don't know how they got there <shrug>).

The most recent working version will always be available at
http://members.bellatlantic.net/~tedgavin/draft-ietf-run-adverts-02.txt

JC Dill has volunteered to gather some relevant cites that show domain
owners successfully suing for damages after smappers have used their
domain name fraudulently (such as AOL.COM), as well as cites that will
show awards of damages for spamming-as-theft-of-service. JC, if you
need any help, don't be shy about asking the list!

Thanks, everyone!

I read the bill and have been watching the conversation. I've decided
that I'm not going to say anything in the IETF list conversation just
yet, mostly because Keith Moore is pretty much echoing a lot of the
pessimism I have about a bill like this ever working in Real Life[tm].

On the other hand, any legislation that at least sets up a framework
which can be ammended after its shown that it doesn't go far enough,
could be a Good Thing. It is important to remember that, in a global
perspective, the bills drafted by the US House of Representatives
carry the legitimacy of the scrawlings of a group of young children in
a sandbox (that must be the ISTF'er in me speaking :).

As Jonathan pointed out several months ago, when a Frenchman receives
spam, if it states that it complies with a "Bill in the US Senate",
the potential effectiveness of that legislation loses is eliminated by
the context. On a positive note, what we do here can be adopted by
ISPs, which will enforce a "higher standard" than the aforementioned
legislation. Especially with all of the concern about privacy that the
press has discovered is popular for scaring their readership into
consuming of late.

Good Afternoon,

I am speaking in the French Parliamentary meeting on Internet and Public
Liberties on Monday, and at the Brussels Parliamentary meeting on Internet
and Education on Wednesday.  A number of key issues will be broached
http://www.crc-evenements.com


The European Community official definition of CO REGULATION is now private
sector "SELF REGULATION" with governmental benediction.

The private sector is cybersquatting in the absence of coherent Governance
legislation and of almost total absence of understanding of the basic
issues linking on and off line legislative harmonisation and coherency.
At a meeting with the UK Foreign Office last week (apart from the fact
that the main officials are not on the internet even if they are beginning
to communicate through email (email adresses not available on business
cards) is the total absence of any real understanding of context let alone
of the issues involved.

We are also expanding ISOC's visibility with a key role in the ISOC
INFOethics conference in Paris in November.  Please liaise with Christine
Maxwell if any interesting thought on these matters for those who do not
follow the ISTF lists.

IPv6 will catalyse change in a number of areas and the implications for
the protection of privacy are unclear .... but some of us are hoping to
effect a role reversal enabling individual freedoms to be both preserved
and expanded.  The battle is not won yet and may not be decided until the
European Parliamentary elections of 2004 - yet there is hope that we can
reverse certain roles.   One event which may interest people is
http://www.newropeans.org where ISOC has signed a MOU for around 15
speakers.  If anyone is especially interested in speaking I may be able to
open up 1 or 2 additionnal slots (food and hotel paid but not transport)
Paris October 5 - 7th  with Prodi Delors Chirac Jospin and several
European heads of State or top ministers.

Best regards Jonathan

Citations for section 2:

I've gotten feedback from 2 excellent industry lawyers.  I need to track
down the best freely accessible online web pages to use for online
citations to the cases they recommend as precedent setting - I should have
that early next week.

The most often mentioned seminal case is:
(quoted and linked from <http://www.jmls.edu/cyber/cases/spam.html>)

CompuServe Inc. v. Cyber Promotions, Inc.

      CompuServe Inc. v. Cyber Promotions, Inc., No. C2-96-1070 (S.D. Ohio
Oct. 24, 1996) (temporary restraining order) [WWW], preliminary
      injunction entered, 962 F. Supp. 1015 (S.D. Ohio Feb. 3, 1997) [WWW |
Lexis | Westlaw], final consent order filed (E.D. Pa. May 9, 1997)
      [WWW].

http://www.leepfrog.com/E-Law/Cases/CompuServe_v_Cyber_Promo.html
http://www.jmls.edu/cyber/cases/cs-cp2.html
http://www.jmls.edu/cyber/cases/cs-cp3.html


I was also told to "pay special attention to the AOL cases":


America Online, Inc. v. Cyber Promotions, Inc.

      America Online, Inc. v. Cyber Promotions, Inc., No. 96-462 (E.D. Va.
complaint filed Apr. 8, 1996) [WWW] (subsequently consolidated with
      Cyber Promotions' action filed in E.D. Pa.).

      Cyber Promotions, Inc. v. America Online, Inc., C.A. No. 96-2486,
1996 WL 565818 (E.D. Pa. Sept. 5, 1996) (temporary restraining order)
      [WWW | Westlaw], rev'd (3d Cir. Sept. 20, 1996), partial summary
judgment granted, 948 F. Supp. 436 (E.D. Pa. Nov. 4, 1996) (on First
      Amendment issues) [WWW | Lexis | Westlaw], reconsideration denied,
948 F. Supp. 436, 447 (Dec. 20, 1996) [WWW | Lexis | Westlaw], temporary
      restraining order denied, 948 F. Supp. 456 (E.D. Pa. Nov. 26, 1996)
(on antitrust claim) [WWW | Lexis | Westlaw], settlement entered (E.D. Pa.
      Feb. 4, 1997) [NEWS.COM report].

America Online, Inc. v. Over the Air Equipment, Inc.

      America Online, Inc. v. Over the Air Equipment, Inc. (E.D. Va.
complaint filed Oct. 2, 1997) [WWW] [NEWS.COM report], preliminary
      injunction entered (Oct. 31, 1997) [NEWS.COM report], settlement
order entered (Dec. 18, 1997) [Wired News report].

America Online, Inc. v. Prime Data Worldnet Systems

      America Online, Inc. v. Prime Data Worldnet Systems (E.D. Va.
complaint filed Oct. 17, 1997) [WWW] [NEWS.COM report].

Other America Online lawsuits

      America Online has filed several other suits related to unsolicited
bulk e-mail. Details are available on the AOL Legal web site.


Again, I'll look into this more early next week.


***************************************

Rewording issue for section 2:


Both of lawyers were unhappy with the wording in section 2, namely:

             Civil and Criminal litigation (in the United States,
             and progressively in other sovereign states, it is
             becoming accepted as fact that the theft-of-service
             associated with spamming is equatable to real theft)

It was recommended we change the ending:

             Civil and Criminal litigation (in the United States,
             and progressively in other sovereign states, it has
             become accepted as fact that the theft-of-service
             associated with spamming often constitutes an
             unlawful use of private property and is actionable
             as trespass to chattels).

They are lawyers, it is legalese. :-(

Given their feedback, I recommend the draft be changed to say:

             Civil and Criminal litigation.  In the United States,
             (and progressively in other sovereign states), it has
             become accepted as fact that the theft-of-service
             associated with spamming often constitutes an
             unlawful use of private property and is actionable
             as trespass to chattels (a legal civil court term
             tantamount to "theft") in civil court.

(Note that by making this last bullet point into a 2 sentence paragraph, to
keep the bulleted list's parallel construction we would have to add
punctuation to the other 3 bullet points.  Simply ending them with a period
would probably suffice.)

***************************************

Citations for section 8:


    " DON'T forge E-mail headers to make it look as if the
    messages originate from anywhere other than where they
    really originate. Many domain owners have won litigation
    against advertisers who have used their domain name in
    an effort to conceal their true identity."


This claim is much easier to cite.  We can use the precedent setting
flowers.com case:

http://www.rahul.net/falk/zilkerjudge.txt

followed by Zirker vs C.N. ENTERPRISES and CRAIG NOWAK:

http://www.jmls.edu/cyber/cases/flowers3.html

and WebSystems vs Cyberpromotion:

http://www.jmls.edu/cyber/cases/websys1.html

to firmly establish that forging headers is a big no-no.

Sigh.

How do we reconcile the legal issue of "trespass does not mean theft" with
our need to strongly and clearly state that unauthorized use of an ISP's
servers (or relay rape of private business servers) is in violation of many
various municipality laws and can cause the spammer serious legal
consequences?  I just don't see how:

spamming often constitutes an
 >             unlawful use of private property and is actionable
 >             as trespass to chattels

meets our need to scare spammers away from doing this illegal act.  The
legalese way of saying this isn't going to get through the brain of anyone
who is contemplating this illegal act.

I'd appreciate some ideas, as my legal resources are pretty time
constrained and can't really be utilized repeatedly until we have a better
idea how we might be wording this to meet our needs, and their legal viewpoint.

I think if we just state

"spamming often constitutes a criminal act, and can result in
fines, imprisonment and civil lawsuits for damages"

as Donald has laid out, we'll be fine.

If we need to cite anything in more specificity, we can do so in an
Appendix, can we not?

Perfect!

Thanks gang!

I'll work on sussing out the AOL cites and then I think we are set.

Do we need to get permission from the various websites to include the
reference URLs in the draft?

It is a very common practice to link to web sites without getting
permission.  There have been a few cases where "deep linking" into the
middle of a site and making it look like it is your own content has caused a
lawsuit.

Linking between related sites is the very nature of the web.  They should
welcome the additional traffic as well as the increased "relevance rating"
they get on certain search engines from having additional links to their
site.

I agree with this, with one caveat. If we are quoting legal precedent
or established case law, we should be referencing the court docket and
ruling information. The link to website(s) can be included as a
reference, but, as we all know, websites come and go. Court references
tend to be a bit more...permanent...of a reference tool.

Sorry to but in - but again taking up my minority viewpoint of some months
ago I feel the argument is to a great extent out of court.

IMHO
1)  Looking ahead 3 years bandwidth and access payments will not be a
problem
2)  The argument regarding ONLINE OFFLINE legislation still holds good and
55% of US surface mail is junk mail
3)  What constitutes SPAM remains a moot question - and the implications
for censorship of free circulation of information outweigh local skin deep
 irritation - however justified that remains.
4)  With IPv6 there will be ways of tracking and backtracking SPAM will be
the rule rather than the exception
5)  This is an unfortunate spin off of this stage of the internet but
cannot be sensibly fought against as a purely online phenomenon
6)  Perhaps closer ties with ISTF may be thought worthwhile - as ISTF will
be looking to IETF in the area of Security and Privacy
