Although small business may be negatively impacted by the controls of CAN-SPAM, I firmly believe that they should be held to the same standards as large companies and be forced to comply with the wishes of the public to not send SPAM. One reason is that I believe many prolific spammers will just keep setting up "small businesses" on paper under different names etc, just to keep the ability to dodge the stricter rules for large companies... thus the spamming will just continue.
