KUDO's To Gmail!2006-04-21 @ 07:27:56 PM
You Go Gmail! And A Big Hearty Thank You!
AOL wants to charge the big guys money to get around their spam filters in order to assure their email gets to AOL members.
I call this EXTORTION!!
AOL "thought" that other big guns would follow suit. But Gmail surprised them by stating: "Gmail does not accept payment to bypass it's filters, nor are there plans to charge senders to read Gmail users." Read the full article here.
KUDO'S to you Gmail.
You know, when all this crap started about "spam" I couldn't believe what I read. I feel this way: Your email is YOUR email. If you join a program or sign up for something on the internet or enter a sweepstakes or contest, most likely you are granting permission to receive email from them and their partners.
Ok, so then when you receive all this extra email, should you complain about it? No! After all, YOU signed up, THEY didn't FORCE you to, therefore, it's YOUR fault you are receiving all this extra email.
Now, one more point I have: If your snail mailperson stood out on the sidewalk and started looking through your mail and decided FOR YOU what he/she deems you should receive or not receive, wouldn't you be just a tad FURIOUS? Yeh? I thought so.
So why do you think that email is any different? I HATE spam filters. It's no one's business what I receive in my email box and no one but me should decide whether I want it or not.
THERE IS A BUTTON ON YOUR KEYBOARD CALLED "DELETE".
If you get email you don't wish to receive, DELETE it or unsubscribe from those places.
SHEESH! Don't cause probelms for those of us that DO want to receive ALL of our email.
Seems there's always one rotten apple in the bottom of the barrel that wants to spoil things for the rest of us. Tsk Tsk. How sad.
