> Once you send me a message, it's mine

Only at the most primitive level of morality. Over that basic layer, I'd still consider how the publication of the message may affect the other person.

For example: Do you think it's morally OK to publish nudes that your partner sends you? I don't think it should be illegal, but only a massive asshole would publish their (ex) partner's nudes.

These concerns do not come into play with the sort of communication being discussed.

If you send me unsolicited commercial messages, I'm gonna feel no compunction about publicizing that you're a spammer.
