Habeas Bags Another Spammer

from the take-them-down dept

While I’m still not at all convinced that Habeas has the right idea in trying to stop spam by using a copyrighted haiku in emails to get around spam filters, it appears they’ve been able to use that strategy to get back at a few spammers. Last year we wrote about a case they won, though, the legal reasoning seemed vague. Now, they’ve won another case for a little over $100,000 against a spammer.
