Tom Long, Esq

Tom Long, Esq., is a divorce attorney. He buys a list of 50,000 email addresses of adults in his city. As he scans the list, he does not recognize anyone associated with any of the addresses. He sends each of them a message that says, "Do you need a divorce attorney? If so, call Tom Long, Esq." This mass email solicitation:

A) is unethical because many of the recipients would consider it offensive spam
B) is unethical because it was real-time communication
C) is ethical because the Internet consists of networks of open-forum communication
D) is ethical because it is not real-time communication, is not misleading or untruthful; does not involve coercion or duress; and is not being sent to anyone on the list that Tom knows does not want to be solicited
