Re: Point of order in re the proper definition of spam
I think you're missing the point, the key word there is "unsolicited." If you have ever done business with a company then email from them is not "unsolicited."
While it's not UBE, solicited bulk email is still colloquially referred to as "spam."
Considering they haven't won one since it was actually an issue that someone wanted to bring his goat to the game, yeah, they're due (which is to say 1908).
I'm not even a fan, and I can raise a pint for 'em.
So does that mean that if the discussion results in "Zero rating is just spiffy!" that's going to be a victory in the FCC clearly doing the right thing?
There's an easy solution, vote the bastards out of office. If the opposition doesn't do anything about it, swap again. Stop being beholden to some party affiliation, deity knows, they aren't beholden to you unless you MAKE them.
Before the US became a signatory to berne in 1989, registration was required. depending on the specific law at the time, reregistration may have been required to cover extended periods.
The difference (as microsoft points out, so helpfully if you bothered to read the article), is that microsoft has offices in the US, and is therefore under the jurisdiction of US courts.
They wouldn't have been granted the trademark in the first place, and preferably fined for filing such a stupid application and wasting the USPTO's time.
I think it's "opt-grey." There was a message that came up, but it was misleadingly worded. It's hard to say something is truly "opt-in" when you go out of your way to make sure the choice being made is an uninformed one.
I'm going to have to disagree with you here. I find it GREATLY disturbing that this remains an unresolved issue. I would by far prefer the FBI gets a precedent.
Said precedent could be resolved in two letters: NO.
