09.13.06 - Judge Charles P. Kocoras grants e360's motion for default judgment and issues a permanent injunction. Judge orders Spamhaus to pay $11,715,000 in compensatory damages to e360Insight. Judge issues permanent injunction against Spamhaus prohibiting them from listing e360Insight without clear and convincing evidence.



After receiving the judgment, Spamhaus refused to comply with the court's order. The truth is Spamhaus uses servers in the U.S., lists U.S. companies on its blacklist, interrupts legitimate commerce in the U.S., uses servers in the U.S., markets and sells services to U.S. companies, charges for its services in U.S. dollars according to rates published on its website, has collected money from U.S. companies, uses a U.S. payment processor to collect these payments and uses a domain subject to U.S. law. Importantly, Spamhaus did not contest jurisdiction when appearing in U.S. court. In spite of these facts, Mr. Linford has made public statements claiming Spamhaus is not subject to U.S. law.

As a result of Spamhaus' refusal to remove the listings, e360 declines to participate in further mediation. e360 resumes its efforts to collect on the judgment.
