I agree with Dan Gillmor's assessment (maybe I'm naive). AT&T has the
bucks and the clout to go after any spammer that tries to use this
technique without license. However, patents being as they are, they can
be abused or gotten around.
Anyway, I'm not terribly worried. Also, the method seems to only address
"duplicate detection", which is but one aspect of spam that SpamAssassin
looks for.
