Not to mention that Federal law requires a one-step unsubscribe method.
As I often seem to get challenged on this, here is the text of the law:
"§ 316.5 Prohibition on charging a fee or imposing other
requirements on recipients who wish to opt out.
Neither a sender nor any person acting on behalf of a sender may
require that any recipient pay any fee, provide any information
other than the recipient’s electronic mail address and opt-out
preferences, or take any other steps except sending a reply
electronic mail message or visiting a single Internet Web page, in
order to:
(a) Use a return electronic mail address or other Internet-based
mechanism, required by 15 U.S.C. 7704(a)(3), to submit a request not
to receive future commercial electronic mail messages from a sender;
or
(b) Have such a request honored as required by 15
U.S.C. 7704(a)(3)(B) and (a)(4)."
You can read more about it, in plain English, here:

Do you read "visiting a single Internet Web page"
as excluding interaction with that page ?
If so, how do I provide my opt-out preferences by ...
"visiting a single Internet Web page" ?
