So glad I switched email and calender services years ago.
Yeah have fun with my newsletters, receipts and spam.
Like, literally. I have not sent a private email since 2010 xD
I tried this and was no longer able to separate my email into Primary Updates and Promotions, and I started getting pings for every stupid ad. So I put it back. I think I’ll start sending weird emails to myself; “teach your kids (the AI) to talk wrong.”
It did the same for me but I took it as an opportunity to wisely unsubscribe from all the crap in my gmail
Yes you are wise. I have a couple gifts ordered from companies who have decided to bombard me with spam, but I need to track the order until it arrives and then I can block them.
You can usually unsubscribe from the marketing emails and still get the tracking notifications if you don’t want to wait
Edit: Also the ‘wisely’ was supposed to be ‘finally’ haha autocorrect needs to lay off the whiskey
Just to add to this. Having a unsubscribe link in emails is a common way to trick ppl into clicking links, so if you do not know where the email comes from then just block it.
I opened GMail and it specifically asked me to give consent in a descriptive/onboarding popover. Declining was choosing one of the two options. I’m in EU, it may be different elsewhere (title and article about US?).
I think we should stay and teach it to swear. A lot. I want it to casually throw things like “fuckery” and “suck start a shotgun” into business emails.
