Well, it's not just with emails, anything now gets bombarded with ads, even online or on Youtube. One of the most common ads I see is "Is this person doing a good job as president" or "Should this sort of thing happen", blah blah blah. It got to the point I started using Adblock because I couldn't stand the ridiculous ads. When they are asking you to do this or do that consistently, you have to wonder how desperate they are.
