Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Under the CAN-SPAM Act, a federal law, the application of state laws that directly regulate the sending of commercial emails is generally preempted. This means that the federal law overrides state laws in this area, except for provisions that prohibit falsity and deception in emails, which states can still regulate.
