What the legal fund does...

• Defend spam fighters from frivolous lawsuits
  Spam fighters are routinely threatened with lawsuits by spammers. Some spammers carry out their threats and these lawsuits cost money to defend. Donations to the Spam-Fighters Legal Defense Fund help anti-spammers carry on their volunteer work.
• Where does the money go?
  SFLDF is run on a purely volunteer basis. 100% of your money goes to defend against frivolous lawsuits by spammers. Most of it goes straight to legal expenses.
• How is the money allocated?
  You may earmark your donations to a specific case if you like, or contribute to the general fund. The general fund is used to pay legal expenses in our current cases and is allocated by the of SFLDF proportional to the needs of the defendants. In the unlikely event that there is money left over at the conclusion of a case, the money will be placed in the SFLDF trust fund against future need.
• What do I get?
  Mostly, a warm fuzzy feeling that you're doing something about the spam problem.
  Contributions to SFLDF are not yet tax-deductible; a non-profit organization is in the works.
  Also, contributors of $500 or more will receive a copy of the Encyclopedia of Spam. See the sidebar. →
