Sentators Propose Anti SMS Spam Law
huh?
The M-SPAM Act would prohibit marketers from sending SMS pitches to landlines registered to the Do-Not-Call list and all mobile phones.
Someone want to explain how you send an SMS to a land line???
i've accidentally txted landlines before and i get prompted (with at&t) that if i want to translate my txt to a landline its 10 or 15 cents, something like that
If it costs the sender 25 cents, though, it doesn't seem to me like it would be very appealing to spammers. Their whole operation is based on the fact that they can send the spam essentially for free. Since text messages have to go through a carrier gateway, it seems like SMS spam is something that really wouldn't be viable anyway.
Though since I automatically toss out anything that comes in the bill besides the bill itself, that probably explains why I didn't know about it! 🤣
