And that would help exactly how much? Do you seriously believe that you can
get all the countries in the world to have the same law? Otherwise a US law
would be useless - if I were to spam you I wouldn't do anything illegal
(until the law changes here of course).
I do think it would be a good start, but it will only slow it down - not
stop it.
