If you're on of those folk who William has spammed from his latest website/mass mail host today, especially if you're one of the ones William has spammed in the post, please be aware that you can file a complain with his mass-mail host at
https://www.wix.com/support-chatbot?nod ... seMainPage
If you need proof that this is serial behaviour going back more than a decade, there are some still-existent threads containing multiple complaints you could include in your complaint, as I have done.

viewtopic.php?p=4603731#p4603731
edit : seemingly wix isnt his website host, but the email headers do indicate that they're from part of Wix, so they're definitely his mass-email host.

It's not a Wix site. Probably just WilliamK trying to cover his trail. You need to complain to GoDaddy - abuse@godaddy.com

Yeah, I hadnt had any email from him since 2020. That's when he illegally tried to sign up myself and another user here to about 10,000 mailing lists for complaining here about being subscribed to that year's new mailing list.an-electric-heart wrote: Sat Nov 12, 2022 7:48 pm Yip.

Maybe if enough people complain to Wix, they will take some action, but wixemails.com was registered through Google Domains, and is hosted by GoDaddy.

You get more uninvited target spam from using google or bing than from a poor mentally ill developer any day of the week. Put him in your spam filter and move on with your “hopefully” healthy life. If he shows up again, it takes little effort to simply mark the spam and move on.
I’ve been around long enough to know very well your vendetta with him, and I don’t say it’s not deserved. I’m simply saying you’ll feel happier if you do.

this guy is just shady, his whole behaviour, i used a low the old wusikstation but this spamming is just unacceptable. normally you could even go to court and he would have to pay big $$$ afaik! but who would do this procedure?
anyways hope more of you guys file in complaints, this is just unacceptable, his business like this cannot be supported. just tragic how someone can fall from a great product with spamming and less optimized new versions just trying to sell his crapware further.

Judging by one the message headers, he is using SparkPost. I suggest complaining to them, as well - https://www.sparkpost.com/report-abuse/

If memory serves me correctly William has a few issues that seem to make it hard to see any of his own actions as wrong. No matter the issue he seemed to always find a way to justify it to himself. So the spam issue is no surprise. It's been a good break from his emails. Hopefully this isn't the start of a new avalanche.
