Isn't targeted email campaign more likely an abuse of privacy? I mean the moment when I receive promotion email without asking.
I don't think these companies care about user's privacy. I wouldn't be surprised if they claim they obtained these data through their marketing partners. Somehow they obtained our consent because we registered on random websites where their ToS stated they could use our data for marketing research or whatever. Fortunately, most e-mail providers block spammy messages nowadays. CMIIW.
