[LINK] Kuro5hin, a site with community written and selected technology news, has just posted an article on HB 1282, the Bad Texas Spam Bill.

The Texas Legislature currently is considering a new Spam Law. House Bill 1282 has sailed through House Committee and is on the verge of being passed out by the Senate Business and Commerce Committee. This would be fine except for one thing: this law would help spammers more than it does their victims.
