For example, I opt out of all emails from a website. A year later they make a new newsletter and auto subscribe all to it.

I login, hit unsubscribe, then report as spam in my email client.

I figure auto adding me is more/less spamming me. Do y'all agree?

I'll mark them as spam even if I technically signed up for whatever bullshit they're sending because I didn't notice the box to uncheck when making an account. It's a shitty tactic and they've all ruined email with it.

Yeah, this is basically my line. If I intentionally subscribed I will be sure to unsubscribe properly once (maybe twice). But if it was unsolicited then it will be marked as spam.
