I am starting to get a bit fed up getting invitations to places like Netlog, Linked-In and others.
These invitations are NOT coming from individuals but from the groups directly.
And to make matters worse, are the ways in which the groups are getting our email addresses......
There is at least one affiliate manager out there that is supplying these places with our email addresses so that we can be invited to join the programs....
Screw that, I didn't give these individuals permission to give my email address to a third party......
Think about that, in order for Netlog to send me an email, telling me that "Mr. Affiliate Manager" has invited me to join Netlog to get updates about this person, they had to provide Netlog (a third party) my email details and this is all done WITHOUT MY PERMISSION!!!!!
This is NOT a person going through a list of members and finding out I am already a member and requesting the "connection" this is a program I have no interest in joining, but now that third party has my email address, because this manager supplied them with it.....
Appologizing about doing this kind of crap is not really enough....because nothing anyone does at this point can take back the fact that the third party has the email....how many times will they sell it?
I don't care if they terms listed on some obscure page that claims they won't sell it, will protect it, all that bla bla bla....
I was NOT given the opportunity to read their terms and make my own decision as to whether or not join the place....my details were provided to them by someone else.....(an affiliate manager)
