INAL either, but this article is not quite right in even does not consider a 
few edge cases ... e.g. it might not even be legal to send check mails for 
the double opt-in — this makes newsletter de facto impossible in germany.

Anyway, it looks like, that only competitors can someone for sending 
advertisement mails, thus I do not think that the T3A has many competitors 
(not to talk about that it is a Swiss organization.

If you want to know more, please have a look at the "Skript Internetrecht":

Discussion stuff just for the sake of discussion is considered rude in other 
cultures.
