No, not suggesting jail, just lamenting I get daily spam through my gmail and other email accounts. Not to mention the recruiter spam that would be basically impossible to stop.

Robocalling seems like a much more tractable problem to solve though.




I believe email spam and Robocalling should both be subject to harsh punishments, even more so if it is sexually explicit spam being sent to minors.


If you murder someone, you go away. If you rob 100 million people of 0.00001% of their life, you just did the equivalent of 100 murders. Seems no less criminal to me - in fact more so.
