How can I move along if EVERY online shop, mechanic, government body or school I tlak with NEEDS my email address to facilitate the contact, conversation or transaction?
What do you propose to these who are currently forced to provide email addresses to lead their daily lives uninterrupted?
And I'm not asking for the example appropriate for the primary school aged child or a senior living in the care home.
Just examples for the normal human adults.
- kees99 2y agoI guess GP meant that online shops, mechanics, government bodies and schools were meant to move along? Not exactly clear where to, though. We don't have another messaging system with quite as wide reach (a.k.a. high value, in terms of Metcalfe's law) as email. Texts(SMS), maybe? But those are not without their own problems - see "green text bubble stigma".
