I just got a spam announcement for "10th IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on
Computer Science and Data Engineering 2023 (IEEE CSDE 2023)" sent from a
bulk mail conmpany in Australia, nominally sent by a faculty member at a
university in New Zealand.
The spam was sent to ietf (at) johnlevine.com which is an address that
I only use in the IETF Datatracker. It's not in any RFCs, it's not
anywhere else.
I am reasonably sure that scraping and spamming is illegal in New Zealand,
but we're in the US. Do we have a policy on third parties using our data
for their own purposes?
