I've long noticed an old trend where subscribing somehow works instantly, but unsubscribing takes "60-90 days to process."
Yeah, the spin on that used to be "that's because we plan our campaigns in advance and use partners to handle them and we have to submit a final list and..." (insert several different types of horseshit here that might survive a passing glance but little more than that).
I've worked in the space. That sort of stuff is true (incredibly), but it's also not consumers' problem.
