Rereading GP I might have misinterpreted a bit (the above still stands though). I see two kinds of emails. One is along the lines that "FYI: we updated our policies regarding X", those are perfectly fine. Then we have "please click here to allow us to send you more emails", which is more or less admitting "hey, we abused the system and spammed you before, please let us continue to do so". And I actually get a smile on my face when I receiver either of them. Yes, the second one should be really bad but I already knew that. The signal I get from the second email is "hey, we're not particularly happy about the situation but we will at least obey the new law". And that makes me happy for many reasons.
