Christopher Faulkner, C I Host CEO Invited to California Commercial Club Spam Economic Forum
DALLAS/EWORLDWIRE/Jan. 20, 2004 --- Christopher Faulkner, CEO of C I Host, will be on a panel sponsored by the Commercial Club of California on "The Multifaceted Nature of Spam Email," which will explore current technology solutions designed to prevent unsolicited commercial e-mail, the benefits and value of email marketing, legislative and legal trends and the business impact of those trends.
Faulkner is considered an expert on the use of technology rather than legislation to stem the unwelcome tide of junk commercial email, called spam, which now makes up close to 60 percent of all email.
"It is vital that we find a spam solution that protects Internet users from unwanted email, while at the same time upholds the commercial speech rights of businesses," Faulkner said.
The panel, to be held April 1, was scheduled by the club to give its members a chance to hear experts from various fields discuss spam, freedom of commercial speech issues and the health and growth of the Internet.
"With the passing into law of the CAN SPAM act on January
1, interest in spam-related issues has reached a new
level," said George Mattathil, Program Chair, the Business Economics and Technology Forum at the Commonwealth Club of California. "The purpose of the panel is to explore legal issues, new technology solutions for spam, issues for e-mail marketers, and how to preserve e-mail as a communications medium."
The Commonwealth Club of California is the nation's oldest
and largest public affairs forum, bringing together its
16,000 members for over 400 annual events on topics ranging across politics, culture, society and the economy.
