Uhhh......
Radio/TV adds have NOTHING to do with spam. People sit through radio/TV adds because they are otherwise getting entertainment for free, and it is a known agreement that for that free broadcast commercials will be shown.

Same when I use a free email service or freeware Eudora - I know I will get ads from the service provider/publisher to support free use of the product.

SPAM, on the other hand, is completely unsolicited and we get NOTHING out of it. It'd be like somebody highjacking onto TV or Radio and broadcasting an ad over the middle of a program or music.

Free Speech is important, but let's squeeze the nuts of for-profit spam senders.
