A quick definition of Georgia:

Georgia: Georgia has laws that protect people from unwanted and deceptive emails, phone calls, and faxes. It is illegal to send false or misleading commercial emails, and people can sue if they receive them. There is also a "Do Not Call" registry to stop telemarketers from calling people who don't want to be bothered. Sending unsolicited advertisements through fax machines is also against the law. Georgia also has laws to protect against computer-related crimes and unfair business practices.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Georgia has several laws that regulate commercial email, spam, telemarketing, telephonic anti-solicitation, faxes, texts, and other media anti-solicitation. These laws aim to protect consumers from deceptive, fraudulent, or abusive practices.

  • The Georgia Computer Systems Protection Act of 1991, as amended by the Georgia Slam Spam E-Mail Act of 2005, makes the sending of false or misleading commercial emails a crime.
  • The Georgia "Do Not Call" Registry prohibits telemarketers from calling consumers who have registered their phone numbers on the list.
  • The Prohibition of unsolicited advertisements sent via fax machine is also enforced in Georgia.

These examples illustrate how Georgia's laws protect consumers from unwanted and deceptive marketing practices. They also show how Georgia provides a private right of action to certain classes of persons, such as email service providers and owners of the domain name for the email address to which a deceptive commercial email was sent.
