Same here. Still blows my mind though. Like do these people think if they just write down an address, then it's magically theirs?
The amount of people who think that their email is only accessible on one computer (as if it were a literal mailbox) actually leads me to believe that yes, many people probably are this dumb.
Does not help that before webmail and IMAP or whatever it basically did work this way lol
I wonder this often.
