[anti-abuse-wg] Definition of Internet Abuse - The agony of trying to unsubscribe

“People say we live in an age of information overload. Right? I don't know about that, but I just know that I get too many marketing emails.”
“...I scrolled down to the bottom of the email, and I pressed, "Unsubscribe." And I thought that'd be the end of it. But a week later, I got another one that said,...”
“And I thought, obviously, I haven't clicked hard enough. So I tried it again. Right? Lo and behold, a week passes, you guessed it,...”
“And I was really annoyed with them, and I thought, OK, I was about to write a strongly worded email, which I can do quite well.”

So Andre, people who do this say they are not committing INTERNET ABUSE because they put a link to unsubscribe. This is too much hypocrisy or they really believe that we are mentally feeble?
According to your concerns as you classify this attitude?

I see billions of spam

Red scam too

I see them blomm

For me and you

And I think to myself

What a wonderful word



I see skies of shit

And Clouds of bits

The bright blessed day

Become a dark pit

And I think to myself

What a wonderful word



The colors of the messages

So pretty in the sky

Are also on the faces

Of spammers going by

I see friends wasting time

Saying: "What can we do?"

They are really saying

"I hate all of you"

Yes, I think to myself

What a wonderful world


Thanks
Marilson
