>That day I sent six complaints about Anthropic, the maker of Claude, to 107 recipients.

So a spammer spammed and got his just deserts. Good.

> On September 1, 2026, between 15:49 and 15:53, I sent six messages from my private Gmail account to a total of 107 different addresses: 99 media addresses, four public authorities, two Anthropic addresses, and two private addresses. They were complaints about Anthropic, the maker of the Claude assistant and Claude Code tool, which had disabled services I paid for and answered my complaints with a bot.

... Eeeeeesh. 99 media addresses, and I guarantee at least several of them probably smacked the "report spam" button to the massive email they've been CC'd on.

Legit I laughed so hard when I got to that point and closed the tab.

100 emails to every 'media company' you can think of is textbook spam. No shit your account got banned, lol.

Really.

Pushing out tens of millions emails a day for years - no, that's creative.

Sending one email to a hundred media companies - a textbook spam.

		Spamming is defined as sending a single message indiscriminately to a bunch of recipients. Old mate sent a single message indiscriminately to a bunch of media companies hoping to get publicity for his personal cause. Yeah, that's textbook spam. > Pushing out tens of millions emails a day for years - no, that's creative. No clue what kind of whataboutism you're trying to bring into the conversation here but it's irrelevant.
