Answer 1

Explanation:

Arguably, spam forms part of the email marketing tool used by marketers for direct advertising. We never asked for or subscribed to most marketing messages that we receive on a daily basis. So how is spam different? Let’s first take a quick look at the predecessors of spam – techniques that marketers have used and are still using – some of which have been over abused and are thus illegal or restricted.

Advertising mail is probably the first type of direct marketing used to sell a product directly to the consumer. It was also the first to be termed Junk mail, since it was over abused by marketers, and people started seeing it as a nuisance.

Advertisements are found in newspapers and magazines mixed up with interesting articles where the ratio of articles to advertisements varies depending on the publication, with some publications having a section for adverts, whereas others having articles hiding a discreet marketing message.

Radio and TV commercials are another nuisance that we have to endure on a daily basis. Some stations are dedicated to simply selling stuff, whereas others mix their ads into the mix of Indiana Jones movies, CSI TV series and Jerry Springer talk shows.

There are other similar techniques used to promote a product or brand. These include door to door leaflet delivery, broadcast faxing, cold calling aka telemarketing, voicemail marketing and last but not least billboards.

While writing this article, I recalled the frustration I felt every time my Rambo film was paused in the middle of the action or the countless ad pages I have to lead through in a newspaper to get to the Sports section at the end. But at the same time, we are tolerant to such marketing content. However we treat spam very differently – we do our best to stop that. Why do we need to subscribe in order to receive spam? I never subscribed to the billboards on the side of the highway.
