I realise that CANSPAM as a law in the US is titled appropriately but I live in the UK where declarative opt-in is a must apart from a couple “soft” opt-in scenarios.
People. Opt. In.
Stop conflating your preferences with other people’s.
- brandonwindson 4mo agoSpammers ignore both opt-in and opt-out, they do not care about UK or US law. That is where hosting provider enforcement matters.
- iamacyborg 4mo agoAgreed but I don’t find the framing of labelling marketers as spammers particularly accurate or useful.
- array_key_first 4mo agoAh yes, the law. Famously followed by every party, especially on the internet. Riddle me this, if a shady company not even headquartered in the UK sends you a newsletter you didn’t willingly opt in to, what happens to them?
