Though /bills/ have been passed, no /laws/ have been passed.

Senate Commerce Committee will probably send CAN-SPAM (S 630)
to the senate floor tomorrow.

Not as strong as H.R. 95 and crucially lacks the right
for consumers to sue spammers. With H.R. 95 as law,
SpamAssasian and SpamCop can be augmented by
SpamAttorney. (Though the entire process can't be
automated, a lot of it can.)
