To be honest, I did not know his name either, until now. But spending 49 years as an iconic character like that, is amazing to me.

I'm old enough that I was watching Sesame Street with my Mum from the beginning. Truth be told, I probably had no idea of what it was till late 1970 at the earliest.
Oscar was always my favourite character.

...anyone tried this: BitBounce - Email That Pays Cryptocurrency[^]
The idea is that it's free email - but if I try to send you an email and I'm not specifically on your whitelist, I have to pay (and you get some of that, but I'm guessing not all).
So spam email becomes a thing of the past, unless they want to pay the account holder for the privilege of sending spam. Which I'm guessing again isn't going to happen.
If you've tried it, is it any good? Bad? Did you actually make any money?

Never heard of it. I read the website, they take 30% of any payments.

I manage my email (via distinct forwards for each contact) quite well and get virtually no spam. Evil befall any who abuse the "privilege".
But - if I had to pay to send someone an email . . . I guess I wouldn't do either.

Governments will find ways to exempt themselves and their "friends". That's what we quickly found out with Do-Not-Call lists.
|
|
|
|
|
Do-Not-Call-Lists fail because all one needs to do is call from outside the national borders of any particular country. US laws, for example, will not do much good in prosecuting call-mills in, for example, India. Free calling, via the internet, puts the final nail in the coffin.
And since it provides employment, it's unlikely anyone will cooperate on their own accord.
Everything's not a government conspiracy - no easy way out, this time.

No conspiracy needed. The DNC law in Canada lists a number of exemptions, and it's crystal clear some special interest groups made sure they found their way on that list.
Here's one simple example: Why should newspapers specifically be exempt from the DNC law to sell you subscriptions via phone? The answer is obvious when you know who owns the majority of newspapers in Canada, and what their political affiliations are.

Canada's version is different.
US Exemptions: charitable organizations, political organizations, corporations you've done business with during the last year (or two?) I believe one may opt out of the latter, but has to contact the company to do so.
I now ignore at least 90% of my incoming telephone calls.
