Can they please also jail everyone responsible for PAPER junk mail through my front door, including, letters, brochures, leaflets, flyers and free newspapers.

And while they are at it, I am fed up of being spammed in the street by offensive hoardings or billboard adverts. They never asked me if I wanted to see nudity in the street and I don't give my permission, still the advertisers do it anyway - and the street is a public place with a 'U' rated audience - so if deletable email is imprisonable (which it should be if pornographic) they should imprison advertisers who break a 'U' rated street law...
