Specifying of other mail filters are consent by user to use specific
technology to filter out email.
I think that defining consent in terms of filters is very confusing
and inaccurate.
If I consent to receive a newsletter about books from Example, and
they start sending me a newsletter about Toys, then they haven't
listened to my request. That has absolutely nothing to do with
whether I've whitelisted newsletter(_at_)example(_dot_)com(_dot_)
I'm not sure if you are really combining whitelisting with that
concept of consent, or just using the same term in a different place,
but I think it would be a good idea not to use the term in both
places.

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
