I received a political spam text this afternoon. For some background, I have a grandfathered ancient UNLIMITED data plan with Verizon, the type that's so old that they didn't think to put in disclaimers about throttling and QoS priorities. As a result, I have to pay full price for phone upgrades, have limited talk minutes, and ZERO free texts. If I change the plan to add texting (which I don't even use), they would un-grandfather me and make me sign up for a new plan with limited "unlimited" data.
With that said:
Of course, I am pretty sure that "Logan" is a bot, and the capitalized UNSUBSCRIBE triggered a canned opt-out response. However, if a check for $0.70 shows up in my mailbox from the candidate's campaign fund, I might reconsider voting for her opponent and actually look at her platform.....
