I think the normal reasoning is that services that don’t use data in this fashion can’t compete with those that do. Hence users who don’t want to be tracked have no other options. Whether that bothers you is a personal question. Edit: I think it’s comparable to something like warranties. Enforcing an automatic 1/2/etc. warranty on products makes certain business models untenable. Do we consider blanket warranties on end products more important or an individuals freedom to forego such a warranty more important? Different societies may reach different conclusions.
