When you hit un-subscribe in the email -- it lets them know that there is a real person on the other end. They then start spamming you more, and selling your email address as a confirmed addy

cuz thats how they work generally , you will likely recieve more spam by clicking them

semi-legit ones will then usually sell your addy to a "sister" company/s if they are compliant

spammers it wont do anything but confirm the email is valid and someone reads the spams = more spam

legit ones you wouldnt be complaining

Thanks for being a snarky asshole when I was only pointing out what everyone else, except for you, already knows.
