Re: Be careful what you wish for said by careful:
Is anyone else bothered by "aim to separate responsible marketing pitches from the "spam" ".
I can see how that can be troubling. While I consider it irresponsible marketing for a company who knows nothing about me to try to sell me "videos of girls and dogs, viagra, penis enlargement, university diplomas and weight loss solutions", the companies might say "well people need those things." I don't need the first (it's sickening,), don't need the second (I'm young and fine as I am), don't need the third (at least according to some women), have the fourth (cost me a helluva lot more than the ones online I'm sure), and I'm fine with my weight. So obviously I do NOT need any of them.
What is the line that would determine what is legitimate and illegitimate? That is the question.
I think we should be able to sue the livin hell out of the ISP's these things come from. I would love to sue WANADOO INTERACTIVE because of their asshole users trying to peddle diet products to me. I think that if the ISPs allow it, they should pay me for the inconvenience of receiving this crap. I don't want it, I never asked for it. Luckily I've filtered out the major subject headers these idiots use. Thank God for email filters and spam repositiories such as Go.com and hotmail.com. As I said in another post. If only there were phone filters as well. |
