Junk fax

Hello! Today, we're going to talk about junk fax.

Imagine if you had a toy that you really liked playing with. And let's say that sometimes, people would come to your house and give you new toys to play with. But sometimes, those people would also give you toys that you didn't like or didn't want. That's kind of what it's like with junk fax.

You know how sometimes you write a letter or draw a picture for someone and give it to them? Well, sometimes companies or people will send a lot of those letters or pictures to other companies or people, hoping that they will buy something or use their services. But instead of letters or pictures, they send faxes. A fax is kind of like a special printer that sends a copy of a paper from one place to another.

Now, getting a fax that you're expecting can be really nice, because it's a way to quickly get information from far away. But getting a lot of faxes that you don't want can be really annoying, especially if they use up your paper and ink or toner, which can be expensive to replace. That's why faxes that people didn't ask for are called "junk" faxes.

Sometimes, people who send junk faxes are not following the rules. Most places have laws that say companies or people who send faxes have to ask people if they want to receive faxes first. But sometimes, people break those laws, and that's not okay.

So, that's what junk fax is. It's when you get faxes that you didn't ask for and don't want. It's like getting a toy you don't like or don't want to play with. But sometimes, people break the rules by sending junk fax, and that's not cool.
