You don't have to falsely identify yourself to do spam canceling -
in addition to the header saying
From: Spammer <[email protected]>
you can put in a header with your real name
Really-From: Mario Greymist <[email protected]>
or put your real name in the body, or a nym you use (e.g. Cancelpoodle)
with an explanation that you're cancelling the spam posted by the
spammer.
>>Spamming aside, this strikes at my privacy and choice of anonymity.
Well, of course - it's an offensively bogus law for a variety of reasons :-)
