This site is going to hurt its interaction rate by doing this:

    By filling out this form you agree to receive occasional emails from one or more sponsor organization. You may of course unsubscribe at any time.

They should list the name of the group, Fight for the Future directly.

For whatever it’s worth, Fight for the Future does a great job on tech policy (arguably up there with EFF) and it’s worth being subscribed to their emails.

My understanding from recent conversations I’ve had with people involved in civil rights advocacy groups is that FFTF was instrumental in making it politically necessary for the House to back away from the PATRIOT Act / FISA renewal. A lot of people are surprised at how well they played this.

Sure - but I hate this kind of tag-along email subscription when I'm trying to do something else.

ActBlue is a terrible offender for this - I can't easily donate to a campaign without getting emails from them for a long time even if I make sure to uncheck whatever boxes they show me.

Even worse they clearly give my email to others because I started getting more campaign emails from other unrelated candidates.

There's also some irony in doing this on a site about saving internet privacy.

Save internet privacy by giving up your privacy to this web site, and to Twitter.

That is the reason I am not going to do anything.

I would like the option to opt-in and not opt-out WHEN I receive an email.

it's almost suspicious.

I think of advertisers who create their own adblockers
