You're not. It's a figment of your imagination.

Note: Apologies if anyone doesn't want to discuss this on arin-discuss. I always assumed this list was intended for relevant discussions about ARIN with "PPML" being for policy discussions. As Rodney Joffe pointed out, there is a URL to a working unsubscribe function at the bottom of all ARIN lists AFAIK if this is problematic for anyone.The list is also tagged in the subject. It is quite easy to filter for later reading comfort. It is a nice way to approach any mailbox organization. 



While I have preferences for voting as an impact to the policy aspect and overall public interest in ARIN, I am not a DMR. My voting views are not relevant to the issue at hand. If there is one. Did I receive actual unsolicited commercial email "UCE"? I don't have a direct relationship with the sender. They weren't asking me for money or selling me anything other than themselves. On one hand, someone running for election seems to have a right per VA corporate law to access information identifying voters. On the other, I am not the DMR for any company at the moment. I don't speak for one either. My interest is solely as an internet citizen. Seems like a grey area with ARIN being between the rock and the hard place more than anything. 



\While in the era of Green Card Lawyers this would have been horrific, today it is not. It is 2018.I don't like spam in the traditional sense, but I am over it in the general sense. Spam filters, both automated and personally configured do well enough. Spam is never going away as long as there is anyone alive willing to send money to $scammer. I'll leave it to the pros and each individual as to what they think it is. For me, this isn't a really a debate about spam.H owever, I do think their is an issue for ARIN to consider for next time. Is email considered PII? What affect, if any, does that have on the required disclosure?

I doubt that my information was shared by ARIN, but it is possible. If it were, I'd be surprised as only DMRs have votes and while others may be listed in the ARIN database, they may not be entirely relevant to the statute. So was it spam? I don't know, but I'm not putting any more cycles into thinking about it. 


Food for though. For next time. $0.02

Right who do you want us to vote for ? All that emails and at the end the candidate remain unknown ? This is really disturbing.

Well, this seems like as good a place as any to bring it up. 

You may as well say which candidate it was from.
