[arin-discuss] ARIN-discuss

[Patrick Laughton]

Just to be clear - I wasn't protesting the act of full, voting ARIN members being subscribed to ARIN-Discuss, just the assertion that every list member was there by their own explicit actions.

I would consider the "welcome" email that I quoted to be sufficiently transparent as to "why I'm getting this 'spam,'" and that the nudge toward the operational community is warranted, given the scope.

And it's not like it's wildly complex to unsubscribe (assuming the requests are correctly getting processed, anyway).

Perhaps ARIN-discuss should be opt-in rather than opt-out by default.  I have no problem with arin-announce being opt-out by default, since that is a moderated and generally low-volume list.

Timothy,

Thanks, I was about to chime in with the same correction and a specific citation.

So, no, not all of us explicitly signed up -- I didn't, and dangit, I'm running out of popcorn.

Just one small correction -- many of us didn't sign up. On our side at
least, there seems to have been an auto-subscribe to a couple of lists
including this one.

However, the point of filtering is quite valid. It's a ten second rule
to set up in Thunderbird etc., either unsubscribe or set up the rule. ;-)
