All manner of companies, slimey or otherwise, are crawling out of the woodwork these past few weeks and one by one sending out their "request for consent" emails. It's almost hilarious really.
"PLease coNfirM thaT yOu WanT us to kEep senDing you our ShiT eMaiLzez"
Now you get to find out all the companies who bought lists that your name was on when you didn't want it on there. You may have purchased something five or ten years ago and the company you did biz with sold your email along with thousands of others. It's probably happened dozens of times over to all of us.
You wonder why you get so much spam crap and wonder how all these idiot companies keep getting your email address(es)? This is how. Canada is doing something about it... maybe. If they run it as effectively as that "do not call" list then it won't mean a hill of ant shit to anyone.
