I unsubscribe from mailing lists 20x more often than I knowingly subscribe to them.
It should be illegal to sign someone up to a mailing list without explicit consent. If I create an account with my email, or provide it as a part of a checkout process, you should not have the ability to sign me up to a mailing list without me explicitly opting in via a dedicated checkbox or button (and it should initialize as un-checked of course).
Breaking the mailing lists into 30 different categories is w/e, but auto opting people in to new categories should also be illegal. Such a scummy dark pattern
