I assume taking any dispositive action at all only signals a different kind of “engagement” to be tracked and eventually monetized if not outright abused. Like when you “Press 1 to be removed” or “text STOP to opt out” — all it does is move you to the mailing list they have for people who think they’re doing something that has any effect. I’m sure that’s valuable to a lot of marketers.
