I wonder if this was a result of me forwarding a complaint to them, or
all of us doing the same, or did someone actually take the time to go
find out what contortions they would like the minions to twist through
to get off of their lists by putting themselves on yet another list?

What a joke, or rather a sad commentary on the state of the marketing

allowed any mailing lists, and esp. not technical or other special
interest mailing lists onto their master list in the first place.]
