Ulf Enterprise - #5

As promised some table summing has revealed the name with the 5th highest number of positions back in mid 2004:

Ulf Enterprise

Didn't find any news, but did find a letter from him to the FTC about some spam ruling. Not saying he is a spammer, but draw your own conclusions. I apologize in advance if there are more than 1 "Ulf Enterprise", but I don't think so considering I found "Ulf Astrom", who wrote the letter with some positions too. This appears to be a common theme in the table, positions under multiple, similar names, family etc.

Ulf's positions:

Re: CAN-SPAM Act Rulemaking, Project No. R411008 Dear Sirs, I applaud your efforts to do something about the problem of unsolicited bulk email. However, I'm concerned about the proposed requirement for merchants to maintain suppression lists. There are so many problems and costs associated with this idea, and so much damage done to consumers and businesses alike, that I feel I must urge you to consider this matter most carefully. Requirement of the use of suppression lists will seriously damage many of the legitimate publications available on the net. My specific concern is for harm to publishers who require permission from the consumer prior to adding them to any list. They're not who CAN-SPAM was designed to put out of business, but this requirement will very likely have that effect. There's also the potential for significant harm to consumers, because of the problem of properly knowing their intent when they unsubscribe from a list. On top of that, these suppression lists could easily fall into the hands of spammers, leading to more spam instead of less. I was quite surprised at the potential problems this ruling could involve, and urge you in the strongest possible terms to reconsider its implementation in light of these problems, Best Regards, Ulf Enterprise DENMARK
