Guys, you're all missing the point. The CAN-SPAM Act is about empowering the states, not the feds. Option B is the only logical choice here.

Ha! Good one, Dianne. The CAN-SPAM Act is about as useful as a chocolate teapot when it comes to dealing with explicit content. Option A is the way to go.

I disagree, the CAN-SPAM Act is clearly focused on regulating sexually explicit content, not general advertising. I think option C is the correct answer.

Wow, Michael, I didn't know you were so passionate about state's rights. Maybe you should run for Congress instead of taking this exam.
