Email: "Our tracking shows you have not been opening our newsletters... so we are going to unsubscribe you.."

Me: "NO, you nitwits, I have an ad blocker on and I'm blocking your tracking pixels..."

(Actually: was not actually signed up for any of their emails yet, valid news source I have a subscription too but hadn't gotten that far. 馃 )

@span ai6yr

i read my email with xemacs/mh-e, which doesn't previsit links, so doesn't work for tracker links in emails. also lets me see exactly what URL they are trying to get me to click, regardless of how they try to obfuscate it.

depressing how much email uses stupid tricks that work with gmail/outlook...
