Maybe we should charge them for emails they send us. Want me to sign up for a news letter, that will be 20€ per email. Or something.

Back in the paper spam days, some folk would stuff the "postage paid" envelopes with junk and mail them back to troll the companies. Setting up a junk address with an autoresponder would be pleasing, but probably would get tagged illegal.

Shame, its legal when big corp does it but illegal when I do it. This always seems weird to me.
