I thought there were some rules passed years ago regarding unsolicited faxes, due to the costs in paper and ink they incurred. I remember the topic coming up in the late 80's or early 90's I think. I wonder if this use falls under those rules? https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/junk-faxes

Of course not. It's not in any way an advertisement.

#33Earlier quoted context omitted.
Do you expect people should like prison? Prison would not be much of a deterrent if it didn't get 1 star from just about everyone in terms of the experience. In terms of dealing with actual abuse of prisoners, the courts are a far more robust system for dealing with complaints.
The US has a brutal prison system where prison rape and sexual assault is routine. The US also has a huge prison population and recidivism is high, so the brutality of the system doesn't seem to work much as a deterrent.

#34Cute, but I'd be concerned that automated unsolicited faxes are not necessarily something that people want to receive.
I'm pretty sure that every company with a fax machine whose number isn't private is accustomed to receiving "automated unsolicited faxes". At $work, we receive just as many (if not more) spam faxes as we do legitimate ones. People just toss 'em in the trash and don't think twice about it.

So in cases like these, a bit if turnabout is more than fair play.
