I have to unsubscribe from five things a week that are clearly other people using my email address to sign up for things.

Someone used my email address to sign up for a Mint account. And the only way you can delink Mint is to call Mint or log into someone else’s financial account. I’m no lawyer but that seems like a very, very bad idea to me.

Usually you have to click a unique confirmation link in the email to activate the account.

My inbox says otherwise. Many sites don’t require the activation code to start using the account apparently. Fucking internet, man.
