If you have recently spent any time checking your mails, you would have noticed increase in the number of emails various websites are sending you. Under GDPR, you have to give explicit permission for a company to keep emailing you.
Obviously most companies who contact you are very keen to continue doing so. That's why companies are sending you messages asking you if you want to stay on their mailing lists.
People who got annoyed by such mails did what they are best at – make meme while the sun shines.
