Regardless of whether I "consented" or not, I'll mark recurring marketing/news/feedback emails as spam in Gmail. This also gives me the option to unsubscribe if Gmail finds a link. Much easier than seeking out the unsub link myself, so I use this even if it's not technically spam.

I do wish Google provided a standalone unsubscribe link. Or maybe companies shouldn't hide it in the fine print and make me fill out a form and survey. The bad apples ruin the bunch.

In my Gmail, most such email has a Google-provided unsubscribe link right next to the source address at the top, e.g.

Spamming Stores <spammingstores@e.spamming.com> Unsubscribe
