What bothers me more than Validity's decision to reduce their free
offering to 10k queries per month is the fact that I have so far
received three almost entirely content-free emails from a salesperson
there urging me to "book some time on [their] calendar" to discuss
giving them money.

I will also note that each of those emails comes with an unsubscribe
link at the bottom, which I have used multiple times now, and this
hasn't so far stopped the emails coming.

I did not sign up with Validity to become a sales lead, I did so because
they were providing a free service and I agreed that that it was
reasonable for them to have contact details of their users in order to
manage it properly. I realise I was extremely naive to believe this was
ever an operational relationship but it has certainly stopped being one
now, and I would like to get off that ride.

It is this which will forever leave me with bad memories of Validity,
not them deciding they can't actually justify providing free services
any more.

Thanks,
Andy

I was encouraged when they interacted with the list emails, but that has gone 
silent since Saturday, and my direct request for information has also gone 
unanswered.
I've disabled the Validity lookups.
Simon.
