If you feel intruded upon by a company, one option might be to file a complaint. It may just apply to US companies, but the Better Business Bureau has an Online Complaint System:

If you receive an abusive email yourself after posting something here, please forward it directly to me (with all its headers, if you know how to do that). FWIW, I can then block any Psycho-Babble or associated Yahoo Group registrations using that email address.
