The person who designed and ran this study is not Mayer. Mayer runs the lab, but this is a subordinate's baby.
From the study's website: "Please contact the lead researcher for this study, Ross Teixeira (rapt@princeton.edu), if you have any questions, believe you received an email in error, or would like to opt out of any future communication related to the study. The additional members of the study team are Professor Jonathan Mayer at the Princeton University Center for Information Technology Policy, who is the Principal Investigator, and Professor Gunes Acar at the Radboud University Digital Security Group."
- ok_dad 5y agoSounds like we should all e-mail him to opt out of his future studies. Maybe he’ll get why a massive e-mail campaign is a bad way to do this “study”.
