    In EU at least they’re required by law to have working unsubscribe links that actually unsubscribe you, otherwise they risk getting huge fines, i understand that in California things are not too far from this but no idea about the details

      This is the case across the whole US, as part of some legislation called the “CAN-SPAM act”. I think the person you’re replying to is talking about fake unsubscribe links in malicious emails.
