> Now, if you can’t unsubscribe (because there’s no link, it’s broken, or simply doesn’t actually unsubscribe), and this is a legit company, please please please let them know.

I mostly agree with you, but this point only works if the company is contactable. There are some companies sending stuff from no reply addresses.

Those I just spam. At that scale companies need to be testing, if they’ve left no way to be reached.

Companies who don’t make it very easy to get in touch are just hurting themselves. Agreed there.

I send with my name on it, reply to everyone who hits the reply button, and have a live chat (manned by humans) as well as a contact us form.

If someone can’t get in touch with me after all of that... That’s a different problem.
