There have been multiple accounts created with the sole purpose of posting advertisement posts or replies containing unsolicited advertising.

Accounts which solely post advertisements, or persistently post them may be terminated.

My bank gives me the option to opt out of marketing communications. It takes three clicks to opt out of each category, and there are three pages like this!

Marketing should always be OPT-IN by default, but these extra steps to opt out is truly asshole design.

Oh, and on the opt-out confirmation screen, you get two options: Yes or No. The button colour for “yes” is white, and the “no” button matches the “save” button on the previous screen, so it’s easy to accidentally cancel the opt-out. Double-asshole design!

At least it allows you to opt-out… as opposed to not at all:-(.

Yes, I’m quite thankful that the option, especially with the granularity, is offered. But they really could have made it user-friendly by having an “opt into all” and “opt out of all” in addition to these individual settings.

Nope. They get more profits if they do it this way, or even if they do not, the manager in charge WANTS it this way or else it would be different. Wishing otherwise does not make it so, unfortuantely:-(.
