- Preliminary
injunction against defendant Ken Hamidi, in Intel v. Hamidi, preventing him from sending any unsolicited e-mail to Intel. EFF believes
this order is flawed in at least two ways: a) it does not make any distinction between Hamidi-sent junkmail, and legitimate mail that Hamidi might need to send to e-mail (i.e. a tech support question about an Intel product); and b) the order fails to clarify why it is being issued, such that it makes no distinction betwee Intel, which has a special employer relationship with its users (Intel can legally be said to be the end recipient, giving it special rights) on the one hand, and a general public ISP on the other, which could set an overbroad precedent giving ISPs untoward control over their user's incoming e-mail.
