"A horrible new PayPal policy opts you into getting robocalls"
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-switch/wp/2015/06/03/a-horrible-new-paypal-policy-opts-you-into-getting-robocalls/
The payments company is rolling out an update to its user agreement
that threatens to bombard you with "autodialed or prerecorded calls
and text messages" -- and worse, by agreeing to the updated terms,
you're immediately opted in. PayPal can even reach you at phone
numbers that you didn't provide. Through undisclosed means, PayPal
says it has the right to contact you on numbers "we have otherwise
obtained."
