| Saying illegal doesn’t make a product illegal. We are getting this statement a lot but still nobody can prove it. Also, what is immoral? How are you so sure we are doing something immoral? Employees are feeling great and more hyped than I am about the product. They see the value behind what we are doing. When a small business owner from a small country sends you a thank you message, we all want to work on our product more. We are getting endless messages from small businesses around the world for showing their gratitude. Most of them have great product or service they want to sell and not good at copywriting. They don’t have enough money to hire someone to chase customers/clients but by using our product, they can finally sell their goods and start a business relationship. We are not getting any contact information from the web. We are just checking their public social profile and website. Where in the GDPR or any similar law this is illegal? Customer brings their own data. For example, one of my customers got this data from their embassy. They collected the data from companies who wants to buy specific type of material but couldn’t find someone to sell to them. They left their contact information and 100s of other companies followed this. As a result, my customer have 1000s of contact data, which are given with consent, waiting to be contacted. This customer mentioned above just started their business and their product is awesome but have nobody to reach out those people. Our product fills this hole. I understand your hate towards what you don’t understand but world is not about just EU or US. We are not breaking the law any means but if you think we do, I want you to prove it so we can fix it. |
Do you think more than 50%, or even more than 20%, of the contact details in that data want to be contacted in this manner?
It's stressful having to discard spam for at least an hour later on a Friday than in times past, when you would rather be with your family - I can't see a way this helps the world. I can assure you multiple side projects I run have never given consent to you or other similar services, yet are continuously spammed in this manner.
If you don't care about the receivers, think of the organic and legitimate senders that are not using such GPT-spam techniques. I now discard a higher proportion of people as false positives - perhaps local students keen to learn - who contact me genuinely, because of services like yours.
To truly reflect, imagine this scenario: Would you be up for going to a careers fair in Germany, entirely populated with young people, feeling sad, never having met or heard back a word of advice, because of your changes to human communication? People who never asked or heard of your US "tool".
