Purpose of Law Aimed at Reducing Pandering Advertising
Families are allowed to opt out of mail from firms sending what they deem pandering advertising while others may continue to receive mailable material. The law targets a small group of dealers who share mailing lists and promises relief to households seeking to avoid offensive ads.
How the law works on stopping unwanted mail
Families can ask a postmaster to stop all mail from a promoter they believe panders to them. The sender must remove the family's name from all lists they own control or rent. If a family moves and wants the order continued, practical action steps are implied.
