I'm a regular on Fox but they have gone down hill quick with how their site constantly refreshes and such. This email required to view articles is the last straw. I'm done with them now.
Back when NEWS agency's won the right to not be called news... but entertainemnt. I realized they can ALL go EFF themselves... And I wouldnt expect them to feed me anything we used to call NEWS....
I get unsolicited emails frequently and scroll down to where it says unsubscribe so I click on that. If the next screen has my email address on it and unsubscribe I'll click on it since they already have my email address and it's probably legetimate. However, if my email address isn't noted, I go back to my email and mark the email/s as phishing or I simply block them. It is difficult to keep up with all the stuff flipped and sent around on the internet,
I just use other people's e-mail addresses when they ask for it... the people I work with love it!
None can be trusted any more. I turn them off or change the channel when the news comes on.
Haven't watch the news on any channel for many years and watch very little TV. Most television and movies are simply full of woke agenda propaganda of one nature or another.
I honestly would not be surprised, but I also doubt it. Using a tool called a web scraper (you can get them free if you run linux) you can "scrape" a website and get every email address included within the site, exported to a tidy excel spreadsheet for you to compile into a nice list. Takes about 30 minutes to learn if you're slow like me. So any emails put out in the clear (like classifieds ads) are ripe for the taking. Go do that to every gun forum you can find and I bet you could compile a couple tens of thousands of emails to sell to an advertising agency or company looking for firearms related leads. Might have to throw a few more trick in there, but that's roughly how it goes. With a little knowhow, you could automate the entire process.
Also, if you use your username for your email handle, which many people do, you also leave yourself vulnerable. Sometimes people will take a list of usernames, feed them through a program that adds popular email domains to them such as @gmail.com, @yahoo.com, @aol.com, @msn.com, protonmail, zoho, and outlook will get you a ton of hits. Those email providers/domains listed above cover about 4 billion of the worlds email users. These junk mailers and such simply cast a very very large net.
You guys are a hoot.
