CHICAGO (CBS.MW) -- A 23-year-old Missouri man has agreed to a federal
court order to stop sending unsolicited e-mails using misleading subject
lines and other deceptive practices.
Brian Westby, who listed his occupation as a "self-employed porn Web
master" after a traffic arrest three years ago, was not present court
when a U.S. district judge issued an order barring him from disguising
the origin of his pornographic e-mail and failing to let consumers
unsubscribe from his lists, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported. The
action against Westby was brought by the Federal Trade Commission
<http://www.ftc.gov/os/caselist/0323030.htm>, which received 46,000
complaints about his spam.
