U.S. Britian Australia join forces against SPAM

http://search-engines-web.com/ sends us news of an international alliance to fight spam. From the article:

The United States, the United Kingdom and Australia signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to share evidence in the fight against the ever-growing problem of spam (define), officials at the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced last week.

 
As part of this “ground-breaking” international deal, the U.K. Office of Fair Trading (OFT), the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and the FTC will engage in evidence exchange, information sharing to detect and investigate international spam activities and enforcement coordination, according to U.K. ministry officials. The three agencies will review the agreement on an annual basis, with an eye toward expanding the scope of information- and investigation-sharing.”
