EDIT: eepurl.com and campaign-archive1.com are both Mailchimp garbage.

Not the most optimal (or cordial) way to convince people that they've made a less optimal decision. It also doesn't explain why you're mad, or what alternative you're suggesting.

I don't care that much about "optimal (or cordial)," and I'm not all that mad. Distrusting "duck"/"Kale Davis" is probably a good idea, but you're of course free to do what you want.

Is using Mailchimp (or related services) the issue or link tracking in general?

33k people trust me with their email address, but you can do whatever you like username223.
