I cannot believe this.
I got subscribed to Intel's Chip Shot newsletter without my knowledge. That wasn't a big deal, though I sure didn't want it. So I decided to unsubscribe using the handy unsubscribe link provided. Once opened, I entered my email address and clicked Unsubscribe. Nothing happened. Sure enough, I kept getting this newsletter.
So I headed over to Intel's privacy notice (http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/p...otice.html) and used the privacy contact form to request my removal. You would think that using the privacy complaint form and designating it as a Privacy Complaint would actually get me somewhere. Nope.
I got some piece of shit named Fred who passed the buck to Intel's Press Relations, who do not handle privacy. I followed the link he provided, realized I had been buck passed, and wrote back to tell him to not pass the buck. I'm still getting spammed by Chip Shot.
I file a separate privacy complaint through the same privacy contact form. I get the exact same cocksucker telling me that I'm somehow contacting Intel's graphics technical support, and passing the buck again to Intel's press relations. Does the privacy contact form look like technical support to you? https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us...ct-us.html
It's crystal clear that Intel is determined to act in bad faith and make unsubscribing from their marketing as difficult as possible. Fuck you, Intel. You've lost my business for good.
