          …tech companies use email all day long to link digital data together. Most people who manage a newsletter do not write their own newsletter software. In fact practically none of them do. Ergo, you get tracked via newsletter also.

              What a weird hill to die on.

              No one is whining about being put on an email list at their own request. Which you obviously know. People were making the point that newsletters aren’t magically immune to data tracking.

              You can bet your ass the MailChimp is sharing a fuckton of data with advertising partners in order to maximize sales to you. It’s not supposed to be controversial. I first just assumed this was something you hadn’t thought about. Sadly you seem hostile to information you hadn’t considered.

      GDPR requires companies to offer a “only neccessary cookies” option that is easily accessible. Anytime you find a site that works as you’ve described you can and should report them.

      Also, there are plenty of options for blocking those popups and/or auto selecting only neccessary.
