Here's the important bit from email I received on Sep. 22:
If you want to decline this invitation, please simply disregard this

I did nothing, and yet, I got magically subscribed!
So, Christopher, while I'm grateful for the explanation of how this
thing called the Internet works, you seem to misunderstand that I'm
talking specifically about *consent* -- and you also seem to disagree
with what happened, which is why I shared the above quote. For further
reading on consent, I'm happy to share a lovely website and
publication that explains the concept as it pertains to technology:
http://www.consentfultech.io/. Borrowing from that framework: I was
misinformed, and I was certainly not enthusiastic about it.
This is like saying because I setup a new server with a new mailing list
program and imported those from the old list the consent doesn't exist
anymore. That is absurd.
There was a fork and the forker took that list and imported it because
the list no longer is what users signed up for. If the fork retains the
mission of the list it is the non-forked list which lacks the consent of
the users and not the forked version.
When you change the terms of an agreement you would need to get consent.
The forked list didn't change the terms. The original maintainer of the
list did.
In any event none of this theoretical chatter matters much. You are on
the internet and the internet fundamentally disagrees with you. It's not
the law that matters because the law differs from place to place and we
are all in different places. It's fundamentally how the internet works
that matters and the fact you are on two lists now is evidence of that
fact.
It's really no wonder to me any more why FSF die-hards dismiss any
kind of constructive criticism -- from Bradley Kuhn's 2018 LibrePlanet
talk to this email from [email protected] on Sep. 27:
Dear Daniel,
You subscribed me to a bunch of lists without my explicit permission
and now you expect me to do the dirty work of unsubscribing.
What were you thinking?
And, no response from Daniel so far.

Daniel, clearly there are many people here demanding to be

from this list.
I am not one of those people.
And when I receive two emails from Adrienne about #RiseUp, etc.

Please remove me, and everyone you added.
Please don't remove me from this list.
Please don't remove me either!!!
Adrienne
