You do realize they were almost certainly doing this before, right?
More of shock value of them announcing it and requiring an email now.
Damn now I have to put in my real email! noooooo I don't know how to avoid this only real emails work?
I've never had this happen before so I didn't know. I just thought it was interesting how they're requiring this now though.
It’s a good thing they don’t have high resolution cameras tracking everything you look at, or they might know what you were thinking about buying
It's a good thing I don't have any socials for them to trace me back to. And since I work there, I'm always looking at shit that will prolly throw them off.
