This is an interesting situation.

First of all most organisations place a statement along with the link about
wanting to unsubscribe from a mailing list, but ICANN expects people to
just know how to do this?

Secondly, the unsubscribe requests are coming at a time when we are
discussing member engagement with ICANN and people are starting to hear
about the issues. It is strange that when individual members could be
having a say about an important issue that actually involves them, rather
than having their say, their preferred response is to unsubscribe? ITEMS
must have got that wrong somehow (funny that!)

And finally, why does the whole of At-Large get the unsubscribe request? It
could start an avalanche of requests now that they are better informed of
the process. :)   And are staff keeping analytics on these unsubscribers?
The latest one was from the UN (?)
