Sending Illegal Spam is Now
Prohibited
The amended Terms prohibit using the Service to send illegal spam. They also require you to comply
with Article 50 of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and
Information Protection (the "Network Act") when you send commercial advertising messages,
and set out the measures we may take if you do not — restricting or suspending message sending,
suspending your use of the Service, or terminating your agreement for use — together with liability
for damages.

Certification System to match the current statutes, and revised some wording unrelated to the
Service.
