RE LB: “Double Opt-In” isn’t really double. It’s 2-factor. Or mutual handshake, if you prefer. You ask to subscribe an address, and the sender emails you a request to confirm that before they send anything else.
There ARE other ways to handle subscriptions ethically, but they ALL include a mechanism confirmingin a reliable way that the user knows what they are asking for and is in control of the subscribed address.
