Meanwhile:

No, I don't like e-mails, they're all spam, I only have an account to register other accounts. Why can't we continue our chat here on Natziapp (formerly known as Chatter)? Yes, I know, it's full of nazis, and stuff, but if we convince him hard enough, he could change for the better.

You missed the one about the data breach that they are still investigating, but subtly hint that your full contact details, credit card, social security number, health status, sexual orientation, bank account, and passwords were sold on the dark web.

I wish you could separate the automated notification system emails from the living, breathing human sitting down to write you a message emails. Also, automated emails calling you by your name ("Hi ${name}!") should be banned.

You don't hate email; you hate BAD email. Probably broadcast junk.

GOOD email is private Bank statements over a provably secure e2e transport marked clearly for filters (with a JSON section for import automatically; am I right?). It's "here is a new copy of the plans." It's "Dear Aunt Helen."

Every now and then, although I know and support the alternate position for reasons I think have been shown as obvious, repeatedly, I sometimes think a 1¢ postage for unsolicited mail - okay, make it a buck - would be okay... IFF that could be figured so the recipient would be assured of getting half. Make it cost; make it pay.

No no, hear me out. Unpaid transit charges for unsolicited bulk email by the person owning the domain is now inter-region or international wire fraud, and the people making a habit of it will build up enough that they'll warrant action. Ergo, make it financial and maybe we'll see cops raiding scam shops.

That's the dream anyway....

This sounds amazing. Although I feel like they'd just pull the cruise ship thing and register their "business" elsewhere.

But hey it'd be a great step! Remember when everyone was SO hopeful for the "National Do Not Call Registry"? Hahahaha...

The US was actually headed this way, starting with spam phone centers... Then the head of the FCC was replaced.

Could be a coincidence. Could be open naked class warfare by billionaires against the rest of us. Hard to say which, for sure.

Not a fan of BONTO!’s forced arbitration clause though.

Most of my e-mails are the automated system for the hospital network I have most of my doctors through. I don't really have many accounts with things though, and usually when I get something from one it is because I logged in on a device I hadn't previously, or changed some information, or ordered something. That and the video call meeting stuff with a couple doctors. Meh.

Email has a place. I always let my teams know that text, phone call, or IM / DM aren't professional ways to communicate.

The reason being is that it isn't externally travelable - you can't send it to the next recipient in a format that is accepted by most people.

Also I hate needing to check five or seven fucking messaging apps to get all of the info consolidated. Send a goddamned email with everything once the thought is finished.

What sort of team setting are you in that your whole team doesn't have a single IM messaging platform that everyone in your company has?
