While I agree in principle with the legislation, I take issue with the timeframe for opt-in compliance. 75% of the online population accesses the Internet every 3 days, but not all of them access e-mail during that timeframe. Extending the time period to 5 days, but shortening from 7 days, would encompass 90% of the online population and is a reasonable time period to comply with opt-in requests.
