    Damage? Where’s the damage? I’m just not sure that giving up practical conviences for whatever this reads like to you and has you worried about is worth it. You’d use no apps ever. And you’d have to consistently be going with less as the technology moves on and you boycott it all. They are literally not staffing these places the way they used to.

      Sounds like you don’t quite understand the significance of that information.

      If you would please post your name, email acounts, mailing address, GPS location, social media accounts, and credit card numbers… I’m sure plenty of people can give you some examples.

        No one you just mentioned is providing any service to me whatsoever. That’s not a 1:1 example. Also, these places have removed traditional ways of doing business with them, in some locations. So, how do you get around that without limiting yourself or simply denying yourself? I’m speaking practically.

        I’m not happy about the privacy issues. I’m just not sure I’d let them win over my other needs/wants.
