You can make all those up, no one’s checking. (Yet, but that’s a different topic)

You had to jump over the point to post this one

Did I? You signed up for an account where data collection is wide open to everyone.

Which was irrelevant.
The user had commented that they didn’t want to sign up to browse content and then they further clarified that making a comment was worth signing up for sometimes.
But for some reason you are insisting the context doesn’t matter? Either signup is always good or bad, we have to choose?

Overall I’m just tired of hearing how _____ is going to ruin the web, or how evangelical people get about not doing something on principle. Sites that “login-wall” their content aren’t going to succeed, but people refusing to create an account acting all doom and gloom are getting to be insufferable.

The data collection is wide open here, which is my point.
