So, you're saying that by having a house, telephone, email account etc, it
gives everyone else the right to contact me and try to sell me something?
I agree that you can't sensibly object to going shopping and finding it busy,
but you can object to somebody coming up to you in the carpark afterwards and
saying that because you are a shopper and a car driver, you obviously want to
join a bookclub.
Personally, spam doesn't bother me, because it's easy to recycle/delete, but
that doesn't make it ok.
