Curing Spam: Rights, Signals & Screens

W. Van Alstyne Marshall

The Economists' Voice, 2007, vol. 4, issue 2, 4

Abstract: Recognizing spam as a pollution problem points to a market-based approach that could be more effective than prior approaches based on technology or law. Marshall Van Alstyne argues that an imperfect market could create more value than even a hypothetical "perfect" filter.
