So how do you feel about email spam? It takes less than 10 seconds to delete an email, too.

What if your phone vibrated 3 times a day with promotional text messages? You know, during meetings, class, conversations, whatever. Times when you only want to look at your phone if it's a message from someone important.

Then would you be annoyed?

I think it's important to send a message to the carrier that this is not OK, before they go any further.
