Moby Automatically Enrolls Hate Mailers Into Fan Club

from the email-revenge dept

Music star Moby apparently got annoyed that his personal email address was published somewhere and he started getting hate emails. So, to get people back, he changed to a new email address and made sure that everyone who sent email to his old email address was automatically enrolled in his fan club. Then, of course, some of the hate mailers got angry, which Moby finds funny. Not that I feel that folks emailing hate messages deserve very much, but I wonder if Moby could then be accused of spamming for signing people up without their permission?

    Wow, eminem parrots. Techno can be awesome music. Listen up! Anyway, the last few Moby releases aren't exactly techno in the first place. People like to criticize things they don't know about.

    Way to go Moby. i dont believe people realize how much power that they do have and unfortunately it is used in a negative way because that is all they know or choose to know.Our happiness onley extends from what we give. A kind comment to some that you dont know is guaranteed growth in your soul.The change from with in is your reward and the people that dont know you can see that and you become a greater and happier person.i am no therapist just an artist givin all of us something to think about.Thanks wordenofseven7
