I don 't particularly want to see a lot of clutter, either, but this is no
different than the dozens of companies (including Apple) that regularly
distribute press releases on the net. So it might be your interpretation of
what amounts to commercial use, but it is at best a minority view. Also, I
think, an incorrect one.
Besides, that's why god invented kill files. I'm not as worried about
people posting stuff I don't like as I am people trying to decide for me
what I ought to want to read...
