This is only tangentially related but I subscribed to the physical Sunday delivery of a large local newspaper a few years ago. It came with the normal amount of additional pages (easily separated) of ads and basically spam mail (nothing crazy). I contacted the papers support people multiple times trying to see if I could opt out of this additional spam and nobody there was able to even comprehend what I was talking about - they just kept referring to "popup ads" and how I should check my browser settings. Gave me a good laugh. Physical mail spam though is a huge problem - we are destroying tons of trees for shit that nobody wants. At least with phone calls it does not result in a ton of paper waste.
