No way I'm willing to carry cash with me. I often shop and move around late in the evening. Should I ever get robbed, I can close my credit and debit cards immediately, but cash would be gone forever. And yes, I've been robbed once.
All that other stuff I just have no time for, nor do I care. As to public domain books, not interested. I like new books and always have.
Possibly if I were 20 years old, I'd think more about privacy. At close to 50, I just no longer care. Life's too short to bother with fake accounts, gift cards or, worst of all, cash, which I've not used for 20 years or more. Couldn't stand going back to cash. Eeew.
