Have you ever gone to the ‘promotions’ tab in your email, scanned through to see if anything is of interest, then deleted all of them without reading any ?
The EU has decided that this is too much trouble, so from 28th May 2018, unless you re-affirm that you want to receive news from Mypashmina, you will not continue to receive news.
The video below shows what you will be protected from.
Why make these new laws ?
It’s called regulatory capture. The big companies lobby the governments to ratchet up the regulation which benefits them and harms their smaller competitors in case any of them take any market share.
Who benefits ?
Amazon, Ebay, Google, Facebook, Twitter benefit. If small businesses have a massively reduced email list, then they have to either sell their products via the big outlets like Amazon and Ebay, or pay Facebook, Twitter and Google for advertising. Also the big high street stores benefit. Email newsletters act as a little reminder that that great small store you bought from last year is still around. High street stores are hard to forget, so a reminder is not necessary. Consultants and lawyers also benefit as they always do with new legislation, the more ridiculous it is, then all the better for them.
It isn’t the consumer who benefits, that is for sure. See the video above about what you might be saved from! Ironically, my twitter feed always has some EUROPEAN COMMISSION advert that I didn’t ask for in my feed. They auto-play videos at me automatically using up a tiny bit of my monthly bandwidth.
