My old person trait is that I think 'ghosting' is completely unacceptable and you owe the other person a face-to-face conversation.

For me, I miss the days when you could browse a website without popups for cookie consent, creating/signing up for an account, paying them money, and disabling your ad blocker.

To be fair, I'd rather always be asked for cookie consent than the websites hoover up every last bit of information about me without my knowledge or consent.

Totally agree with the rest of your points though. Like, why do I need an nVidia account to download fucking drivers?

Or a Logitech account to use a keyboard? 😆
