One step further: If I'm in the "promotions" tab, then I'm actively looking for deals. So if Google can come up with promotions that interest me, then I'll welcome this new change.
It's not like they're spamming our other inboxes. It's just the promotions inbox.
- OoTheNigerian 13y agoThe promotions tab is NOT where you go to actively look for deals. You do that on Groupon. The promotion tab is where you get promotional emails from services that you have OPTED IN to receive emails from. So is it far game if the Viagra emails only appear in the promotion's tab? Google is sending spam (unsolicited emails). That is all there is s to say about it.

- TheCraiggers 13y agoOne could argue that signing up for a Google service is enough to form a "business relationship" with them. Just like how if you buy a new pair of rocket skis from ACME, you're likely to get promotional email from them featuring sales on anvils.
- Kerrick 13y agoGoogle is not sending spam. If you use IMAP, those never show up. Google is making it appear that there are emails there.
- recursive 13y ago> The promotions tab is NOT where you go to actively look for deals. You do that on Groupon. Is that a joke?
- psbp 13y agoThe detractors are just here to bash unashamed. This really makes a lot of sense. You have pretty overt ads displayed, and deletable, within a tab devoted to ads. It's pretty much the best scenario imaginable for an ad supported service.
