German Court: "Sharing" Your Amazon Purchases Is Spamming (reuters.com)

An anonymous reader writes: A court in Germany has ruled that the 'Share' links which Amazon provides to customers directly after making a purchase at the site are unlawful. The "Share" functionality provides buttons which allow the consumer to signal a new purchase via Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, or email. The court, ratifying an earlier decision made at a lower court, declared that emails initiated via the Share function constitute "unsolicited advertising and unreasonable harassment."

68% of all Citizen of the USA are expected to destroy their credit before age 30.

I wish people would get red-purchase-flag when they buy "stuff" made in brutal conditions in the third world on credit.

Then we would know who is paying for stuff or making themselves a burden on everyone else.
