That is not what “unstop” means. You unstop a drain that is clogged, you don’t unstop something you want to restart.

It’s totally appropriate. They’re conflating their spam with a stream of shit that’s backed up, which is entirely accurate.
I don’t know, the MW defines unstop as “free from obstruction” or “remove a stopper”. You could say that the “stop” text functions as an obstruction or stopper, which you can remove in order to receive texts again.

I gave up getting upset by little things like that years ago. If I can understand the intention of the other person, then it’s not worth nitpicking. Of course I correct my children, but that’s because they are still learning and need the reinforcement.
All that to say, I’m much happier putting my sanity first.
