AND WHY DO YOU THINK NOBODY WOULD OPT-IN, ASSHOLES?

Damn, imagine if I could give to every store an opt-out form, that if they didn't sign and return the form for me, I could take an item from their store every year as a birthday gift. If it was opt-in, nobody would opt-in in that case too...

They're not wrong (about the opt-in).
