John Gruber @gruber.foo · Nov 6 Just one day after Election Day and I'm already getting next-cycle spam from Democrats again. My name is not "Michael", for what it's worth, and I've had the same phone number for like 30 years. Infuriating.

I’m gonna ask the obvious question, assuming the answer is yes: Have you sent STOP in all-caps?
There's no way to share a personal automation, but this one has been a joy for me…
i’m donna to them
please mr michael gruber, we need your support 🥺
Embrace your inner Michael.
I get democrat spam all the time to my email address but meant for my mom. It’s like the party shares email lists. Dems or Reps alike should have some restraint over breaking mass emailing rules.
They call me Joan..
I have had this issue for years, and I suspect the issue is that some national list/database got the name and email columns mixed up. The second issue is that somehow, dems have become convinced that they need to blast you with fundraising emails 24/7. It makes you want to tune out.
My favorite Shortcut remains the oneI wrote to autoreply STOP to these messages.
