* hpr3972 :: Thunderbird inbox filtering: keeping a
clean/orderly inbox.[2]

Why unsubscribe?
I don't know how it is in the US, but in Europe, a
newsletter by law needs to have a clear way of
unsubscribing by providing a link somewhere.
Why unsubscribe? 1. For the environment. It is dirt
cheap to spam e-mails around. But the amount adds up
in electricity and traffic. 2. For your own privacy.
2a. If you use a commercial mail provider that scans
your mails, then each time you get one of those, it
is scanned and the profile on you grows. 2b. In case
the sender of the newsletter is ever hacked (chances
are it will at a certain point), your address will
leak to the crackers. 2c. The sender has your address
and can (and probably will) trade it for money. In an
ideal world (we all like to think that hope dies
last) they delete your address when you unsubscribe.
If not, it's probably a violation of GDPR.

This show is very opinionated
The nice thing about podcasts and radio is that you
can monologue whatever nonsense you like and act like
it is the single truth in the universe. That is
exactly what is going on this show. First there is
some useful information about sextortion, the forms
it manifests in and consequences it can have in real
life, that's the good stuff. Then comes the bad and
the straight-out ugly bit. While the speaker starts
of with a pretty factual analysis, eventually he
slides into a very much opinionated stance against
any form of digital eroticism. Don't do ***** kids!
Where have we heard that before, right? Seriously, if
you are an adult having a problem with the fact that
people exchange nudes in their sexual discovery
journey then that is just your own moral problem, do
not project that on the rest of the world please.
People have done that about sex, drugs, music,
religious believes, cultural habits, and pretty much
everything we humans design to entertain ourselves
and to carry out our identity into the world. Saying
"Don't do that" really is totally random moral stance
since what is found to be offensive in your part of
the world might be totally innocent behavior where I
live and vice versa. So, again, because repetition
seems to work for Coca-Cola: don't project your own
random moral objections onto the world. They are
legit, they are rightfully yours to keep. But don't
try to push them further than that, because that's
just randomly stupid.

Poor quality.
SGOTY. Up to this point, your shows have been of good
quality and well considered.
I will preface this with the fact that yes,
sexstortion is something that exists. Observing some
basic safety measures when using the internet could
easily prevent it. It is a societal problem in,
especially in the age of social media.
This show however, was a hideous disappointment.
Utterly condescending to other human beings,
particularly victims of this. Moral-panic ridden
pearl clutching nonsense.
You opted not to :- Actually speak with any victim of
the phenomenon about their lived experience.
Nor did you cite any actual subject matter expert,
such as Eva Galperin (Cybersecurity director at the
EFF, works with sextortion victims), Violet Blue (an
author and journalist who covers the phenomenon and
adjacent social/tech matters extensively)
Your sources amount to :-
The FBI, a government agency known globally for utter
incompetence in understanding social phenomena, and
known to frequently lie to further its own, often ill-
considered goals. and Reddit. REDDIT.
Thats a fairly clear cut case of source bias.
Repeated mentions of 'evidence' that you opt not to
cite directly or clearly.
Nothing whatsoever besides moral grandstanding and a
baseless belief you have any right to tell others how
to conduct their personal lives.
Seriously, DO. BETTER.
