$60B Cursor called out for sending email blasts with a fake unsubscribe link
NYCounihan · x · 2026-09-12
A user called out Cursor (valued around $60B) for email blasts containing a fake unsubscribe link: the "Unsubscribe" text is hardcoded as styled, non-clickable HTML rather than a working opt-out URL, leaving recipients no real way to unsubscribe — a likely CAN-SPAM violation. The post includes source-code evidence.
