SpamCop Gets Restraining Order On Spammer's Temporary Restraining Order

from the well,-not-quite dept

Well, that certainly was quick. Yesterday we wrote about the temporary restraining order against SpamCop from reporting any spam from OptInRealBig to ISPs other than OptIn's own, and today that temporary restraining order was dissolved, as it appears the lawyers for IronPort/SpamCop made a compelling argument that OptInRealBig wasn't telling the full story. The judge admits that: "The legal issues are more complicated than they originally appeared." The hearing on the case has also been moved up a few days and will be held early next week.
