Read this Article if You Hate SPAM and SPIT

Well it finally happened as predicted the SPIT is here; that is to say SPAM over IP Telephony. Yes indeed, they have found a way to send you VoIP SPAM and you thought you had some good news by saving a bunch of money on your long distance telephone bill, didnt you? Well, guess what there are no Do Not SPIT Lists at the FTC and you would not want to be on one anyway, as the SPAMers would only use the list to fill up your voice mail?

Cant we Just say no to SPIT? Well, we wish it were that easy, but it isnt as there is no formal definition of what SPIT is? And hence there are no regulations. The Federal Trade Commission says they are working quickly to come up with a definition, but there will need to be public hearings, committees, mission statements and the like. Then a set of regulations on SPIT can be introduced? If this really makes your blood boil you are not alone and it could get worse. If SPIT comes in SPIT-wads, that is to say batches of unwanted SPIT, then you could lose disruptions of 1-2 seconds as it comes in on your phone call. Plus you might have anywhere from 40-100 SPIT per day of junk voice mails, which you will have to listen to the beginning and then delete?

Companies providing VoIP cannot block all the SPIT otherwise they might block your legitimate phone calls. Oh Bob, I never got your voice mail, I though it was a bunch of SPIT, so I erased it, sorry I missed the meeting and presentation and you lost the $200,000 deal! Looks like VoIP is a little more complicated than we thought? Think on this.
