Ask HN: Why can't I unsubscribe to privacy policy updates?

1 points by dmak ↗ HN
I have been getting too many emails for privacy policy updates. I really don't want to know, and I already unsubscribed to many of these services.

Funny fact - if you ignore all the email, the services should care that they delete all private data. Or you can reply to all these emails with the request: Please send me an export of all personal data you stored in the last years.
The recent onslaught has to do with every organization trying to address GDPR prior to Friday.
To be fair, it’s the basis of a good list of companies that you will contact post-25th to get them to delete all data they hold on you.
