Wow, you sound exactly like the apple users I was referring to, except I can't tell whether you actually are one. :) The point is that yes, "my usb drives" get polluted the second I give them to an apple user even if they just read files off them. Same happens if an apple user accesses a writable network share on my NAS or my PC. I care, because I constantly have to be on the look-out then to not accidentally add them to tar files, backups etc. When I navigate my own file collections I just don't want these things lying around my folders everywhere, distracting me for zero benefit. That's all work and mind capacity that apple happily, without asking, offloads onto me, because they won't bother _their_ users with it and because wtf am I supposed to do, refuse to interact with all apple systems?
