Yeah, definitely do not donate money to Democrats (or Republicans, I assume), at least not with any real contact info whatsoever, as they will spam and worse, sell your info forever. Even still I still get occasional random requests like “I’m Mike Bobson, and I’m running for state assembly, 4th district in South Carolina.” Like, wtf, no I’m not going to fund literally every race in the country.
I did find a way to get NGP VAN to F off though!
From the email response I got from them:
> … If instead, you would rather not receive email from any of our customers, we can offer to add your email address to our "blocklist." This will prevent an email sent by our customers, using our email product, from being delivered to you. This will not completely eliminate our customers' ability to email you, and it will not delete your data from their systems. For instance, if our customer uses another system to send bulk email, then our “blocklist” would not stop them from emailing you through that system. Please note this is an all or nothing approach – we do not have the ability to apply the “blocklist” to individual customers using our email tool. If your email address is added to the “blocklist” you will not receive communications from any of our customers using our platform.
Then there was a link which unfortunately seems to have my email embedded in it so I can’t share it directly.
I started this process via making a request on yourdigitalrights.org. Best of luck and lmk if I can be of any help.
