“It’s inevitable” often means “we’re doing this against your will and without requiring consent because we’re in a position of power”
@thomasfuchs 'Inevitable' just means you're too lazy for consent dialogs. Almost always.
@rgo @thomasfuchs
Or that you know nobody will click "i want that" or "yes please"... So you let them pick "later" or "remind me" or "i guess, if I absolutely have no other choice"
@thomasfuchs 💯 -- the other times it feels like 'we'd sure find it convenient if you believed there's no hope in fighting against this.'
@thomasfuchs By "it's inevitable" they mean "don't fight back." But I don't like being told what to do, me.
@thomasfuchs it is, in fact, quite evitable, but it would possibly make us money
@thomasfuchs And when they say "it's not going away"... well, that's what they used to tell the French about kings.
@thomasfuchs reminds me of folks who justify actions based on legality. The disconnect that happens where folks forget that laws are made by whoever is in power. That legality does not ensure morality.
@thomasfuchs very true! I use this technique for training puppies to come when called.
