No, I'm very aggressively marketing that information via phones, social media targeted ads, maybe fliers for small towns, etc.
It's different being a name on a list of millions of names and being aggressively singled out. The latter is effective, the former is not.

I'm actually aware of that, and carefully did not claim otherwise. I don't question the effectiveness of that part of the strategy. (I do question the ethics, but, well, I'm sure that doesn't surprise anybody, including you. I say this mostly so I don't get a followup from someone conflating my belief in its effectiveness with my belief in its ethicalness. But, yes, I would expect this to be effective. It's also something that will get progressively less effective over time as more people do it, and I also think there is no chance that nobody else will do this, equally publicly. Privately I'm sure it's already been done, of course.)
