I've had difficulty using the Web unsubscribe form, so I've been
unsubscribing from this repeated stupidity exclusively via e-mail, which
seems to work much better.

For example, you can e-mail [email protected] to
begin the process. You'll receive a confirmation e-mail, you reply to the
confirmation e-mail, and then you're successfully unsubscribed.

I already view Google pretty skeptically, but allowing its system to be
abused like this seems downright negligent. Subscribing to a mailing list
should, of course, require confirmation. And lists ("Google Groups") that
are being used only to personate and troll should be disabled immediately.
