Sounds like it, or there'd be a massive class-action lawsuit in the offing!

So what is the difference between that and UK receiving, for example,
unsolicited "Jokes" on their mobiles for which they have to pay?

It is only possible for that to happen if you have *asked* to receive
the "service". IOW they may not be sent unsolicited. The acceptance
is usually tacked onto the end of the conditions you agree to if
requesting a "free" ringtone, game or picture for your mobile, and so
it catched out lots of children.
