Tel Aviv University fined for spamming
Second-year law student Guy Mor, a member of the editorial board of the Tel Aviv University Law Review, had an email in February “promoting a course in English language for business and immediately requested in writing that his name be removed from the distribution list”, says
right the Chronicle of Higher Education.
The university refused, saying it owned the email service and it was “technically impossible to delete one student from the list”, it says,going on.“After receiving three more e-mails and three more refusals, Mr. Mor filed suit.”
Finally, because the university “refused to stop sending a student unsolicited promotional e-mails”, small claims judge Ronen Ilan fined it “2,000 shekels (approximately $525) plus 300 shekels ($79) in costs for violating an Israeli law that forbids sending promotional e-mails against the wishes of the recipient”, says the story,adding:“The judge said the agreement was too general and must be reversible.
“A person can agree to receive promotional material and
right afterwards change his mind, said Judge Ilan in his decision.”
