Obviously, freedombox has no way of knowing that you are not still using this product, so of course you are still going to get emails. to me this is evidence to the contrary: you are not being tracked and nobody at freedombox has the slightest idea whether you are using their browser or not. And of course the problem with just buying the software is that you aren't going to get updates--I don't know whether that's why your browser stopped working or not but it's a possibility. As for emails, I see no shame in mike Calvo informing customers of the need to expand and offering some incintives for people who bring in more customers. He's emailing people who, at least as far as he knows, use freedombox and, with the small customer base fb has, I can hardly imagine that anybody is raking in money hand over fist. My only regret is that I have no customers to refer. Have you written to freedombox and asked them to remove you from their email list? -- Cheryl "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."
