What Apple and Google are doing to your push notifications

Not sure about your experience, I’ve almost never encountered a marketing email that didn’t have an unsubscribe link, as is mandated by law in some countries. So I’m not really sure what you’re talking about.

In the past, yeah. But today? Never.

Have you encountered a "marketing email" that you didn't sign up for? That's called phishing.

Have you clicked on links in phishing emails? That's called getting pwned.

That’s also not relevant to the topic, which was transactional vs marketing app notifications, and making a correlation to email.

It's certainly relevant to the topic: notifications, and a claim of legal requirements.

Legal requirements are useless without enforcement.
