Any unsubscribe services available?
I want to cleanse my inbox! It's in dire need of attention from years of accumulated email subscriptions.
I'm looking for a service that I connect to my gmail and it lists all subscriptions and gives me the option to unsub from them in bulk.
Unroll.me used to provide this service but a) It didn't work for me and b) They are under a lot of scrutiny for their privacy policies and terms of service.
I also looked in to https://getunsubscriber.com/ but their terms of service are even worse than unroll.me
This is a good question, I'd like to know as well. As we get closer to Christmas my inbox fills up with advertisements for everything. I usually use the time to unsubscribe from the lists that provide nothing but advertisements.
Absolutely, Xmas is a nightmare time for spam. Upvote the thread for visbility Kevin if you are also hoping someone has a solution to this.
Done, forgot to do that earlier.
@colin Given the nature of the service in question here, negative press or not, I doubt there is any Privacy Policy in the world that could make us feel significantly better than when using Unrollme. We're always going to feel uneasy when our email account is getting raped with a fine tooth comb regardless of who is doing it.
It's the equivalent of a digital enema, for a lack of a better analogy, but even more intimate, if that's even possible. You have to just close your eyes and jump.
When companies provide a free service as useful and valuable as this type of service, I think they have to be prepared to defend themselves in an argument about privacy and most likely in a way that will hold up in court. And I think the fact that they are free to begin with, absolves them from anything you should be worried about. If they wanted to be sneaky, they would charge you $1 for the service as a decoy, tell you that's how they make their money (because millions of users adds up), and then sell your data without our knowledge..or any number of ways they could be sneaky without us finding out.
It looks like it they still provide the same service. They might have had a temporary issue or server/network problem, etc. when you tried it. My first attempt didn't work either.
nice
Not sure you actually read the thread? 🤔
