Thr FTC requirement to maintain lists of people who opt-out and distribute such opt-out or suppression lists to advertisers and other Internet marketers will create more spam, not stop it. What's more, the costs of doing this can put small outfits out of business. I am concerned about the proposed requirement for merchants to maintain suppression lists. Let's penalize the spammers, not legitimate businesses who are trying to e-mail responsibly. Unfortunately the Do Not Email Registery will not work so should be eliminated.
