Fine to a company for sending spam

Η Kogan μια εμπορική εταιρεία στην Αυστραλία "κέρδισε" ένα πρόστιμο 237.811 $ (AU $ 310.800) following an investigation by the Australian Communications Authority (ACMA) which found that its online affiliate was in flagrant violation of spam laws .

The ACMA investigation revealed that Kogan sent more than 42 million emails to consumers from 13 to 15 December 2019, which could not be easily deleted.

To delete the company's customers from the list they had to create an account with a password s, to log into their account and then delete themselves.

According to the Australian Spam Act, commercial e-mails must contain a functional deletion feature.

"Οι παραβιάσεις της Kogan έχουν επηρεάσει εκατομμύρια καταναλωτές. Η ACMA έλαβε καταγγελίες από αρκετούς παραλήπτες των email της Kogan, που εξέφραζαν την απογοήτευσή τους και την ανησυχία τους για τις πρακτικές της εταιρείας" , δήλωσε ο πρόεδρος της ACMA Nerida O'Loughlin.

"Οι επιχειρήσεις θα πρέπει να συμμορφώνονται με τις απαιτήσεις κατάργησης εγγραφής στους κανόνες ανεπιθύμητης αλληλογραφίας. Αυτή η έρευνα καθιστά σαφές ότι κανείς δεν μπορεί να αναγκάσει τους πελάτες να ορίσουν έναν κωδικό πρόσβασης για να συνδεθούν και να διαγραφούν από τη λήψη εμπορικών μηνυμάτων."

Ο O'Loughlin σημείωσε ότι η ACMA έστειλε στην Kogan "πολλαπλές συμμόρφωσης" πριν από την έναρξη της έρευνας.

  1. … Mmm and they will definitely pay the fine…
    As long as they pay for it and as many fraudulent shops sell seaweed for silk ribbons in Greece that, after eating the world's francs, and after receiving the fine, they fired a cannon and became Louis…

    And this while in China, another Chinese official was executed for corruption (kickbacks, etc.). But we and the other EU countries and the Anglo-Saxon array, we are "civilized".

    Υγ. and then George friend, you wonder what you are still doing here (as you say in your moto and I have started to tell my friends about myself).

    Good month.
