Who is to say that telemarketing is /morally/ legal? The authorities have
become more lenient about it because there is a person talking who is
involved -- someone who must make a living. I bet it started with
individuals who politely phoned before it became a heavy production line
and systematic industry where people are employed on a fixed rate (plus
bonuses).
With spam, on the other hand, whatever the conversion rates, only robots
(read: servers) are involved. Humans can never cope with the productivity
of robots. Imagine yourself the impact of spam becoming legal.
