Spam limits, privacy on White House agenda

Reuters: “After months of silence, the Bush administration will weigh in “shortly” on
a range of high-tech issues ranging from junk e-mail to online privacy, a senior
administration official said Wednesday.

Nancy Victory, who heads the Commerce Department’s National Telecommunications and
Information Administration (NTIA), said the Bush administration has been working on an inclusive
policy and would announce its position on several high-tech issues, including proposed limits to
the junk e-mail known as spam.”
