Promotional emails to email when registering domains, legal?

Question

Domain name market

Hello!
I often have to register new domains for myself or my friends. And for the last six months or a year, I can’t say for sure on the emails indicated during registration, after a day, messages from different companies (legal entities LLC) begin to arrive with offers to order from their site at a discount.
Naturally, given that there are many such companies-beggars (you can’t call a company with lazy managers in another way), it turns out to be real spam.
I would like to know if a company obtained my data, albeit from a public source (whois), but without my permission to receive advertising messages, can I sue this company for violating federal law on advertising or something else?

Answer 1

Now there are more cases when registrations of new domains are tracked - and similar advertisements for website development are sent out. Of course, data spammers are taken from open sources.
It is extremely difficult to prove that the mailing list (and most often mailing lists are made from bulletproof servers) was ordered by this particular company. If the letter is one-time, it is easier to ignore than to run around with statements. Police police in this matter is absolutely ineffective.
Another thing, you can contact for example www.spamcop.net/
They send complaints to data centers, even if SPAM was sent not from this DC, but the sites advertised in the letter are located in the DC. It is unlikely that this will lead to blocking the site - the hoster does not have enough grounds for this, but the complaint will be forwarded to the site owner and a couple of hundred complaints - already a reason for the company to think about the advisability of such advertising.

Answer 2

Theoretically, it is possible to attract under Article 18 of the Federal Law “On Advertising”, the first paragraph of which reads: “Distribution of advertising over telecommunication networks, including through the use of telephone, facsimile, mobile radiotelephone communications, is allowed only with the prior consent of the subscriber or addressee to receive advertising. »
But I think that in practice it is very difficult to hold accountable for this. However, try to write a statement to the police - it definitely won't get worse :)
