1) Akamai won't be using any lists in the future to do e-mail marketing. That's a firm commitment that we're prepared to make. Anyone doing so will be terminated. 2) Akamai's policy has been and remains that no Akamai salespeople are to e-mail potential customers unless they've been given permission to do so by a human. Violations have led, and will lead, to termination.
As it should be. If only every company could be big enough to stand up and say "We made a mistake, we learned from that mistake and we'll strive never to do it again."
I, for one, applaud this.
