In most cases, I don’t want the service to send me emails (spam)

That's fair but in a lot of cases you verify the email for your account and there is activity associated with that account. There are many reasons other than to send unwanted marketing emails for the service to need to get in touch with you, including the many cases where you're entering the email address because you want to be notified of something.
