When stupid people get together, they come up with stupid ideas, or their combined ignorance amplifies and intensifies their stupidity. The internet is a wonderful network, but a 'tard and their stupidity are soon imposed onto folks who want nothing to do with it. Here is one such example.

Subject: Salutations or something..

Hello, and welcome to the UMass Anarchist mailing list.  We're a couple of
clueless college kids who write newsletters because we think that maybe
someone out there gives a shit what we've got to say, which is a pretty
big assumption and often proves out wrong. 

In case you're confused, you got put on this list by either you yourself
mailing "anarchist@silverbox.com" or by one of your friends (or maybe
enemies!) doing so. You can get off the list at anytime by writing the
above address with the subject "remove" .. even right now, if you want to.
And don't worry about getting tons of mail. We wouldn't even send out tons
if we had the time to. The newsletter usually gets sent out about once
every three weeks.

In case you're not really sure what we're all about or what we write
about, the next message is a copy of one of our mailings. So check it out
and we hope to hear from you in the future...

[The UMass Anarchist StaFF]

So, I follow their removal instructions and instead of being removed, I get this garbage:

Subject: The Posthumous Anarchist

So basically I've decided to completely scrap the idea of making this
newsletter more minimalistic by making it a little more informative, and a
little more surreal in an effort to make it stand out from the mindless
ocean of garbage that is known as the internet. Back are stupid and
unnecessary comments that take years to figure out, caked in extranious
content, shakey credibility, and bad grammar. 

In case you haven't already guessed, it's me, Jason Stiener and if you're
interested, I wrote this newsletter using Notepad...not bad, eh? I surf
the web incessantly and write poetry when inspired. After college I dream
of getting a real job. Imagine that. 

It's nearly the end of another semester at the University of Massachusetts
...which could only mean one thing. Yep, it's time again to hear the
juniors use the word "burnout". All in all, it appears that this semester
didn't suck as much as I had originally anticipated, but I still have tons
of tough classes, a shitty minimum wage job, and the freshmen down the
hall that keep blasting The Allman Brothers. I actually called Dr. Jack
Kevorkian, but he put me on hold. 

So here you are, at a desolate rest stop on the information autobahn - 
this
is the UMass Anarchist. The only newsletter that strives for truth, longs
for attention, and tries hard to keep it real. It's the newsletter that I
put out whenever I get my lazy ass in gear. The whole idea is pretty 
cool... 


                --[ In loving memory of Jason Stiener, 
                    lost in a freak accident during a
                    UMass fire-drill. We'll miss you.. 

                                1976 - 1996             ]--

Cancellation lead to the above unwanted and pointless stupidity. But I already mentioned that.

Mr. Pickett --

I'd like to apologize to you on behalf of our entire staff here. Your name
was incorrectly placed on our mailing list and we are all sorry for the
mixup. I assure that you have been removed from our list and will never
receive a mailing from us again. 

It is not often that we have these sort of slip-ups, but when we do, we
regret the trouble we cause for all parties involved. Please accept this
apology wholeheartedly from the entire staff of our publication. 

Sincerely,
Michael Rusignola

You'll see who was informed(adminstratively) in regards to this garbage. Words like "anarchy" automatically trigger extremely negative reactions from me.

Obviously if they had thought of that in the first place, this never would have happened. Apology was not accepted.


Let's investigate the domain a little bit. This stuff was all over the place.

This is their reply to my negative email that was also direct to alert administration. I should also note that copies were immediately sent to police, FCC and FBI, due to their mention of anarchy. I figured authorities might be interested in a potentially dangerous group.

oh, and we have nothing to do with anarchy.

but say we had. last i recall, we had a first ammendment right to speak
our minds, and advocate whatever form of government we desire. i
personally thoroughly enjoy our republic. but if i wanted sixteen chimps
in spandex to run the nation, i think i have a right to say so, don't i?

That sort of says it all right there, don't you think? Some stupid college kids with poor language skills, boasting about misrepresenting themselves. Why call themselves anarchists if they aren't into anarchy? Oh, wonderful, they are lying.

Of course, the first ammendment lets them lie and write this garbage up, but it does not give them the right to include people who did not sign their list, and then IMPOSE their garbage on such people who didn't want it. The part about them sending it to someone who doesn't want it violates first ammendment rights.


UPDATE
02/03/97

I recieved two calls on the way back home from the office on my cellular phone. Obviously they were dialing the office and since that number forwards to my cellular, I get the call there. I was assuming this was a customer, and I was asked to hold, which I said "no", and was placed on hold anyways, which in turn deteriorated into a radio station. This has happened before, so I hung up, knowing when I get a radio station in my cellular phone, the call tends to get hosed.

A few minutes later, a voice calls back asking me not to hang up. When it introduced itself from this little anarchy group, I hung up before it could explain anything.

Moral: Don't screw with me as I'll grind your butt into the ground.
