Internet is not for commercial use! And lads-l list is not for junk
e-mail. I have sent a message to protest bnsun's behavior. Now just
few minutes later, I got another junk e-mail from him. I am, as any
internet user should be, very offended by this kind of behavior. I think
bnsun should make an apology to all the lads-l members and stop doing
this. Otherwise we should contact the network administrator at UIUC
to notify them the unlawful commercial use of internet by bnsun.

	Although bnsun's two junks are very very very very very disgusting, I
don't think his behavior is 'unlawful'.  'Ignorant', 'uncaring', 'unethical'
would be better words to describe commerial postings to the special purpose
mailing lists.
	
	I think he should make apologies, just like all other folks who have
done the similar thing.

Strictly speaking, it is unlawful. Because a significant funding of internet
comes from the federal goverment. By law, any resource such funded by the
federal goverment is not allowed for commercial usage.

But I agree with you. No matter what we call it, the point is, anyone using
internet for commercial purpose is abusing internet and harming the commercial
free nature of this valuable resource. It just can not be tolerated.
