Michigan

Read a random definition: virtute officii

A quick definition of Michigan:

Michigan has laws to protect people from unwanted emails, phone calls, and text messages. They also have rules against sending pornographic messages to minors and criminalize harassing messages. If someone breaks these laws, they can be punished.

A more thorough explanation:

Michigan has several laws and regulations in place to protect individuals from unsolicited commercial emails, telemarketing calls, and other forms of solicitation. These laws include:

The Unsolicited Commercial Email Protection Act, codified at Michigan Compiled Laws, Chapter 445, prohibits the sending of unsolicited commercial emails. Violations of this law can result in penalties and fines.

Michigan laws regulate "home solicitation sales," including telemarketing sales, and establish a "Do Not Call" registry. This means that individuals can register their phone numbers to avoid receiving telemarketing calls. Violations of these laws can result in penalties and fines.

Michigan prohibits the use of fax machines to send unsolicited advertisements, and provides for a private right of action to enforce the prohibition. This means that individuals can take legal action against those who violate this law.

Michigan specifies a number of unlawful trade practices in Michigan Compiled Laws, Chapter 445. Violations of the telemarketing statutes and the Identity Theft Protection Act are defined as unlawful trade practices. While spam emailing activity is not specifically defined as an unlawful trade practice in this section, it can still result in penalties and fines.

The Michigan Children's Protection Act of 2004 provides for the registration of telecommunications and email "contact points" used by minors, and prohibits pornographic messages sent to such "contact points" (including email messages) in violation of the Act. Violations of this law can result in penalties and fines.

The Michigan Children's Protection Act of 2004 criminalizes all messages sent to telecommunications and email "contact points" used by minors (including email messages) in violation of the Act. Violations of this law can result in penalties and fines.

Ahhhaha they just waitlisted me. I was legit just holding on for a free trip to Phoenix (they fund $750 even if ASD has already passed when they accept you). I had an unspeakably unprofessional experience (my 3L interviewer didn't show up for my interview, then the admissions office lied to cover for him lolol AND this whole time they've been addressing emails to me as "Dear Lastname," (yes, with two spaces)
