Major online retailer Kogan has been fined $310,800 for sending 42 million marketing emails without proper unsubscribe functions.

The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) found the company breached Australian spam laws by forcing consumers to set up an account before they could sign-out of the emails.
