Bloody tree huggers

38 Degrees are still up to their usual tricks. Since I really do care about legal aid, I decided to sign one of their petitions against my better judgement. They provide no means even to opt out of signing up to their mailing list if you do so. Hence this email (entitled "your awful email list policy").

Hello there,

I have just signed your petition regarding legal aid, because it's something I believe in a great deal.

However, you provided me with no option not to receive further campaign emails from you.

I know you think that you're saving the world, but spam is spam. If a commercial company did that sort of thing you would doubtless be up in arms.

Please don't tell me that the vast majority of your users are pleased to receive your emails. I am not the vast majority of your users, and I am not pleased.

I would be grateful if you would remove this email address from any of your mailing lists, and would urge you to reconsider your policy, at least to the extent of allowing people to opt out of your mailing list.
