This is a well-written, thought-provoking article, well worth reading albeit a bit long. David, please consider forwarding to the AC list and www-tag. The solution it recommends, fee-for-service, will not solve all the Web's problems but is certainly worth debating. Even charging a fraction of a cent for every email you send would have a major impact on spam. I wish, though, the article had explored further the parallels with another ad-supported industry: network TV.
