Pretty sure that’s no longer the case. You need to register your “campaign” to send any SMS messages. I put campaign in quotes because the process seems to ignore the fact that people might have use cases that are unrelated to marketing. h

Demdex is a DMP from Adobe that is used by companies to manage their first-party data so this particular example with Chase is very likely not an example of third-party ad serving abuse. Chase would have presumably put Adobe through a secu

I've often read headlines noting that the tax-prep lobby spends huge sums to preserve the status quo. But the numbers quoted in the article as evidence don't appear to support that claim. $6.6m seems low relative to these figure
