while I agree that junk mail is an issue, there are some differences.
1. junk mail is sent either to a recipient or an address, the mailer is paying some fee for it.
2. while it is a nuisance, they aren't going out of their way to hide who sent it or breaking a bunch of laws and contracts in order to send it.
3. we don't have government agencies ignoring or trying to stop the implementation of laws that pertain to junk mail, we'd need to get laws passed to stop it before that could occur.
so, yeah, horrific waste, but not the same.
- yamtaddle 3y ago> they aren't going out of their way to hide who sent it I see an awful lot of bulk mail that's trying really hard to look like something it's not. Some of it's so bad that I'm surprised it doesn't fall afoul of various laws (and maybe it does, but enforcement is so poor that it's still profitable to do it).
