Is it wrong to report email as spam when you previously opted out and they either add a new subscription/newsletter, etc.? (sh.itjust.works)

For example, I opt out of all emails from a website. A year later they make a new newsletter and auto subscribe all to it.

I login, hit unsubscribe, then report as spam in my email client.

I figure auto adding me is more/less spamming me. Do y'all agree?

I applied to a job with a hotel once, now they send me regular emails about other unrelated jobs. But to unsubscribe I have to log in, and apparently applying to the job didn't create a complete profile so I'd have to create an account just to unsubscribe.

They're marked as spam now.
