[opensuse-project] SUSE Marketing mail in my inbox?
I just got a mail titled "Webinar: Nonstop-IT sicherstellen" (ensure nonstop IT) to the mail address I use for openSUSE stuff from events@suse.com. I never signed up for any SUSE marketing mails. Did something during the account migration go haywire?

The unsubscribe link is only shown in the html part of the mail, so it might as well not be there for users on TUI clients.

My KMail shows for security reasons HTML only when I explicitly request so for particular mail. So no obvious unsubscribe, i.e. GDPR violation. -- Vojtěch Zeisek https://trapa.cz/ Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/

I won't ask for toning up again ;-) but I can understand Erwin. The text/plain part of the mail has exactly 3 links: - https://more.suse.com/index.php/email/emailWebview?mkt_tok=....... (without a description, based on the "Webview" part I'll guess that the link is meant to read the mail in a browser - and the token is more than long enough to contain click tracking) - https://em.suse.com/.... - to sign on for the webinar - another https://em.suse.com/.... - to request a callback Maybe [1] the HTML version of the mail has more links including one for the Subscription Centre - but the text/plain version doesn't. Therefore I fully understand that Erwin claims "no possibility to unsubscribe", and have to support it from my text/plain POV. I'd recommend to (at least) fix the text/plain part ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz [1] just a guess, I'm not going to change my KMail preferences to display HTML only to check that ;-) -- <jjohansen> systemd does not like being confined <jjohansen> you can so easily break your system confining it <sarnold> it sure wouldn't be something I'd undertake lightly <sarnold> even though that's basically a huge sign that it would benefit from being confined :) [from #apparmor] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

Did you check that it actually works? Quoting our team IRC earlier today: There's a List-Unsubscribe header as well, but that just ends up with "Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender" It is hardly a coincidence that why I typed "mktomail" to Google search, second completion hint was "mktmail spam" (the first was "mktomail").

Why should I tone down? I have an account for the SUSE bugtracker. Suddenly that account is being used for SUSE "customer" and commercial purposes. I am not a SUSE customer. You are now using the data for a purpose for which it was not collected. ---> GDPR violation. The data of that account was handed over to an american data processor without my consent. ---> GDPR violation. I logged in into this customer account and noticed that a lot of items are mandatory (instead of optional) but, since contact with customers goes mainly through e-mail, are not necessary to deliver the service. So, you are collecting to much data. ---> GDPR violation. There is no posibility to remove that data or to delete the "customer" account. ---> GDPR violation. Next the e-mail address of that account is being used for a commercial mailing for which I did not give my consent either. ---> GDPR violation. There is no unsubscribe link in the commercial mail. There is a link called "Rückruf anfordern" but that means "Call back", not unsubscribe. ---> GDPR violation. So, I am really wondering if SUSE staff knows the GDPR and got GDPR training. Was your Data Protection Officer not involved in this migration project?

Did you only migrate the account you use for Bugzilla and maybe other opensuse.org services? Or did you also get an account at https://myaccount.suse.com ? (Previously those two used to be just one, hence the questions.) If both, can you tell (from the address you received that mail) which of the two was used?
I logged in into this customer account and noticed
Which of the two possible accounts does this refer to? I am asking these questions to provide more input for what I triggered on the SUSE side.

Prior to the account migrations that took place a couple of weeks ago, they were all under microfocus.com - and there was no distinction between them. As you say, jdd, the accounts were migrated - and it likely was nothing more than an honest mistake resulting from the split of those systems.

After the first migration I suddenly also have an account at https:// myaccount.suse.com where I fisrt only had an account for the openSUSE bug tracker.

I do not have that commercial mail anymore.

This refers to the account at https://myaccount.suse.com

Yes. Now, what happened here is unfortunate and never should have happened. Full stop. What I learned in the meantime is that someone (not the person whose name was listed in the From) made a genuine mistake. The mail many of us got was intended for a quite different, quite smaller, distribution. I will push very hard such that (a) this will not repeat and (b) GDPR concerns will be addressed.
