All former DNSO GA members or other interested stakeholders/users,

  I wonder why there hasn't been an injunction sought by non-sexually
explicit spammers?  None the less, perhaps this is previews of coming
attractions for all spammers?  Also none the less, it seems like
ICANN's approach of .KIDS.US didn't help very much...  But
than again at the time they were told as much....

  17/11 January 2005)
US District Court Chief Judge Philip M. Pro has granted the Federal
Trade Commission's (FTC's) request for preliminary injunctions against
six companies accused of sending adult-themed spam.  The companies are
enjoined from sending out spam for the duration of the civil suit
against them.  The FTC alleges that the email sent by these companies
did not have either the required "Sexually Explicit" labels in their
subject lines or a way of opting out of receiving future email.
