Oh, the spam I receive

Apparently, since I run a housing bubble blog, I want to receive email spam press releases about crappy real estate flipping TV shows:

[Our Crappy Real Estate Flipping TV Show] follows the lives of three of Los Angeles' hottest, young and aggressive real estate magnates in the making as they make a fortune selling multi-million dollar properties in the most exclusive neighborhoods – Hollywood, Malibu and Beverly Hills. With the economy still in a slump, [Hot, Young, Aggressive Real Estate Magnate in the Making 1], [Hot, Young, Aggressive Real Estate Magnate in the Making 2] and [Hot, Young, Aggressive Real Estate Magnate in the Making 3] must fight for their share of the market and the competition is intense. Season [X] follows the agents as they deal with some of the most demanding clients they have ever encountered. They are pushed to the limit and struggle to manage their personal lives while also trying to move some of the most magnificent and most expensive homes in the City of Angels.

The spamming hard working TV network VP even left her contact information in case my readers I want to sign her up for a mailing list contact her about her crappy real estate flipping TV show:

Cynthia Arntzen
VP, FerenComm
380 Lexington Avenue, Suite 517
New York, NY 10168

I really got a kick out of this bit:

If you are the intended recipient of this message, you agree to keep all privileged and/or confidential information private without written consent of the sender, and will use any such information only within the necessary scope of your professional work.

I have agreed to nothing! I haven't even agreed to receive Cynthia Arntzen's spam press releases, but I receive them anyway. I love how corporate folks think an "agreement" is something imposed by one party onto another. It reminds me of how Republicans think "freedom" and "government power" are the same thing. Example: Wikileaks is a threat to freedom.

Actually, the only email address in the spam email's press release's "To:" field was Cynthia Arntzen's (yes, she sent the email to herself), so I'm probably not "the intended recipient" anyway and thus am not commanded have not agreed to keep all privileged and/or confidential information private.
