if you click the bell at the top of the page, you can set it to ping you for every message in this channel unsubscribing to a newsletter usually works by sending an email, but it varies by newsletter and by provider subscribe to a ton of newsletters, then try out their unsubscribe mechanisms and figure out how they work, then go from there sometimes it's also a link to a page where you have to fill out a form there's no centralized third party API for anything like that, even if individual services might have one. Again though, that's a research topic and a case-by-case basis finally, I'm not really sure if that makes sense at all as a browser plugin. Browsers don't generally handle email, and a lot of webmail providers (gmail at least) already has handy unsubscribe buttons for newsletters
