Meet the Company Spam-Texting Against Barack Obama

http://j.mp/Tn62DT  (Atlantic)

   "CcAdvertising has worked for a wide range of clients, including the
    National Organization for Marriage, the Family Research Council, and
    Senator Roy Blount of Missouri -- as well as corporate giants such as
    Starbucks and Burger King, according to its website. And it's been at
    the center of controversies over the legality of its methods before,
    too. Requests for comment from the company were not immediately
    returned."
