I believe the phone companies have the technology to filter, they just don't have the equipment... and it would be very cost prohibitive to put that in... more than the 25 cents to $10 they tack on for other services which wouldn't go over well with consumers... so they waited for the government to deal with it.
On ISP's... I'm betting the courts go with what I said... it's common sense. Use a different ISP if you dislike that one blocks spam. No one is twisting someones arm.
Bottom line is, How MANY fools actually WANT spam?!?! lol Law usually prevails for the majority or we'd have legal murderers don't you think?! If you ask your mailman nicely, you never see junkmail either... legal or not, it's done all over the country every day. ;-)
I'm still betting that the jerk spammers that send to any addy they can get won't conform or stay conformed for long.
