When it comes to personal data, and targeted subscribers being
"individuals" a lot of the time, I am at the extreme 'off with their
heads' end of the spectrum. I even sent the following submission to a
Parliamentary Spam enquiry (although some think I was stretching things
too far):
2.1) Some provisions in the Directives above only apply to
natural (rather than legal) persons. However, if an email that
would only be of interest to a natural person (for example, an
invitation to buy Viagra sent to the sales address of a shipping
company), is sent to the address of a legal person, then it
ought to be construed that a natural person is the intended
recipient, and the full protection of the Directives should be
provided.
