I received this message from Vodafone today, and seriously it's lame. i am not a message freak, but still it's not gonna stop telemarketers or spammers. Every day i am getting like 10-20 ad SMSes and all they are doing is stop end user's from sending more than 100 SMS?

The positive out of this I will stop receiving useless forwards .
You can forward the good ones but I dont need to send the sms to 20 people to display my love towards people !

Looks like some official at TRAI got the forward finally.
TRAI: [Ultimate Rage] Time for some bad luck to come your way spammer. Presses button> 100msg limit. 90% of Indians shrug and don't bother. 5% of lovers send a 1000msgs per day and make wireless love till they can(25th sept). Spammers resign and take up actual jobs.
P.S. Message quoted was my own wording. There are similar messages floating around. If you haven't come across one, consider yourself incredibly lucky.

^^ Those are not real targets Sarath, the real targets are telemarketers and useless advertisements.

Me too.
Still instead of limiting it based on per SIM basis they can stop bulk SMS provider.

I guess I already knew that.
BTW I think we are looking at a spam inbox for our text messages in near future. What say?
Known contacts into Inbox and the rest away from our prying eyes.
All in all I am glad with this move. I think I was too excited in my first post. I am little calmly content now. I am more happy because my friends will get over the habit now and just call and sort it out.
During my hostel life I had already figured this out; It takes 20 messages, over a span of an hour, to convey what you can in a 2 minute call.

It is most likely for individual subscribers. I think this is a good move since all the registered bulk sms companies are capped by DND. So now we wont be spammed by spammers on normal numbers.
I stop receiving all promotional SMSes already. I think this move will further prevent more spam messages.
I think NO
