It's true. They are email spammers just like all the other email spammers. I used to get a few of their news letters, but I cancelled them all - several times. Each time I cancel them, they stop coming for a while, but it doesn't take long before they start sending them again. I've been receiving spam from them for years - the current period has lasted a few months so far, but I'm fed up of cancelling each time. I'm now receiving 3 copies of the newsletter each time.

Bloody spammers!

... the only way I can think of is for us to write a petition, get a bunch of e-signatures and submit it to webproworld. If not, class action lawsuit. Seriously ...

Spreading the fact that they are spammers around the forums, including WPW, might cause them to take notice and change tbeir policy.
