I emailed the Obama camp last week asking about his stance on porn — a genuine enquiry about a relevant topic.

I did this via their Media Requests page, where it says:

“Thank you for your interest to request an interview. Our communications team will review your request and get back to you as soon as we have more information regarding its status. We thank you for contacting us and look forward to touching base in the future.”

So one member of their communication team read my message, discarded it as not worthy of a reply and then proceeded to add my details to their mailing list.

This is the only possible explanation for the emails I received from Barack himself — “Victories and attacks” and “Spun out” were the subject lines.

Mr. Obama, let me be absolutely clear about this. At no point did I sign up to your mailing list or give my consent for my personal details to be stored in your database.

Thus, your email communication strategy is as bad as those who spam us with daily doses of V1@gr@, promises of million dollar bank transactions and all sorts of pr0n.

This is the reason for my impromptu naked protest at the unnofficial Obama HQs in Second Life – see the pics below.

I will continue to potest until:

a. My personal details are removed from your database
b. I get an apology.

I would like to thank Horses for her support and presence at the protest. Good to see that there are people of integrity in Second Life.
