Like most I guess, whenever I get an unsolicited marketing email I scroll to the bottom and look for the 4 pt Unsubscribe link. Got one this morning. PgDn, PgDn… hmmm, no Unsubscribe, I thought it was the law. Ah, there it is: Stop all types of future commercial email from blah blah…. Let's click it…

Ah-ha, there's a big yellow Unsubscribe From All button. Lets click it... tickety-boo, shouldn't hear from them again.

4 hours later, WTF another one, click the "Stop all…" link again, all check boxes off - click the big yellow button… again. More fine print - Please allow up to 10 business days for unsubscribe requests to be processed..

If you're thinking, some shonky outfit such as: ................................, your probably wrong, it was NG

BR

One of the emails suggested I should watch a doco about Long Covid… but I've not had Short Covid… yet.
