For example, I opt out of all emails from a website. A year later they make a new newsletter and auto subscribe all to it.

I login, hit unsubscribe, then report as spam in my email client.

I figure auto adding me is more/less spamming me. Do y’all agree?

    I used to do this kind of thing for work. Best practice is, before you sign anyone up for a list, even one they literally just clicked to subscribe to, you send them one email saying hey click this thing if you want our newsletter. Just so there’s never a misunderstanding. If they don’t click, you never send them anything else.

    Report away. Fuck ‘em.
