Tried it again with a different message and they said they'd try to unsubscribe me this time instead of opening a link. Did try again yesterday with a different spam message and had it open a tab though; Zapier was spamming me with some newsletter so I clicked "Report Spam and Unsubcribe" yesterday and it opened up this in a new tab: https://zapier.com/app/settings/email?payload=REMOVED https://zapier.com/app/settings/email?payload=REMOVED Not really sure how it determines that -- I'll probably avoid clicking it just out of precaution and just report spam going forward though.

Using a lot of the privacy and security measures suggested in https://www.privacytools.io/ https://www.privacytools.io/ I sometimes do a gmail search using 'is:unread in:all unsubscribe' and click on most of the links I can find. In some cases, Gmail automatically detects the unsubscribe link. If you click Gmail's unsubscribe link, it may give you a pop-up or it may automatically write an email to unsubscribe@example.com. The pop-up usually leads to a form that you have to fill to 'update your newsletter preferences'.
