The only ad that works on me is when steam emails to say a game on my wish list is on sale

Meanwhile to me this is another piece of exasperating spam. My Steam account hasn’t been active in close to a decade but they never stop

Can't you just disable steam email notifications or unsubscribe from mailing list? You ideally shouldn't have to login for the later.

To disable, I’d have to login.

I usually don’t like unsubscribing because it results in more spam. Even legitimate sites seem to sell your “verified email address”. Nowadays everything has a unique generated email so I can turn it off at will, but that was long before I started doing that

So, laziness, inertia, excuses
