For those of you playing along with the Freeipods.com lawsuit, here's some extra fun.
Jumpstart Technologies was one of the three companies Freeipods.com (aka Freepay and Gratis Internet) sold their email lists to.
Turns out that on the same day Spitzer filed suit vs. Gratis, the Federal Trade Commission leveled a $900,000 civil penalty for violating the CAN-SPAM Act against the spammers at Jumpstart Technologies. That's the biggest FTC penalty ever for a spam operation.
A big hat tip to Michael over at Spamroll for making the connection.
