Cory Doctorow, pluralistic.net:

Did you know that, by default, your email sends information to mailing list platforms about your reading activity? The platform gets to know if you opened the message, and often how far along you’ve read in it. On top of that, they get all the private information your browser or app leaks about you, including your location. This is unbelievably gross, and you get to bypass all of it, just by reading in RSS.

I think I’m down to just one newsletter delivered via email (from someone I trust!). All the rest come in through RSS, and it’s the way to go for sure.
