Most of what's going on here (as far as the general public is concerned) just seems to be emails confirming that you still want to be on mailing lists. If you don't reply, then you should stop receiving marketing emails from those companies (if you haven't already unsubscribed).

Yes, I think that's the crux of the Regulation. I'm all for it... I don't like being bombarded with emails about "Great Deals for Beijing" when I went once, a couple of years ago, and have absolutely no intention of visiting again.
