Well *I* know that and *you* know that, but the brands don’t fucking know that, so maybe we need to find a way to put boundaries around that “relationship”

I believe in our collective ability to move the Overton window back to "your brand doesn't necessarily get to have a relationship with consumers".

honestly the sole reason why I’ll never donate again. I need a way to unsubscribe from ActBlue forever pls

But you don't understand, it's the filing deadline and we need to hit our target! This is somehow your problem!

GE takes it even further! bought a fridge from them and now I get an extended warranty letter in the snail mail every week without fail

I feel like email in general needs to have a positive consent model layered on top of it. If the sender can't sign the email with a key that your email host can verify. It gets immediately trashed. That way you can unilaterally revoke consent.
