Not likely. Can you imagine trying to prosecute someone in, say, the Netherlands? How about Mexico? Or Honduras? It's just not feasible. It should be possible to apply similar laws to perpetrators in the U.S., however. But that doesn't stop them from trying to sell me armature video from a cage fight (newest one I've seen).

If there was the desire it would be possible. I'll bet they could prosecute someon from overseas if they sent GW Bush a letter bomb.

Seems to me the solution would be for each country to enact an anti spamming law. According to that article a lot of spam comes from the US.

Isn't some spam already illegal in the US?? Some of them have that little blurb and the end that implies that the law requires them to provide a way to remove you from their database. since we all know those links do nothing aren't they illegal?
