Only if they are reputable companies though. If it’s a dodgy spammer and you click the unsubscribe link, you’ll just validate your email and then get tons more spam
Agreed – occasionally I nearly do click those links but then remember what they do. I usually only unsubscribe from companies I know to be ‘reputable’ and just block others.
Dell are fun though – it took me months to finally stop getting their spam as they have multiple accounts they send from so buy one computer and they farm the email address out to every account they have and you have to unsubscribe from EACH account, not just globally. It took a Twitter bombardment from me to finally get them to cease.
