Sure, I get that. I'm not saying I'm expecting others to do as I do, I'm simply trying to explain my view. My post was an attempt to answer posts like
your #47 and
JSWolf's #33, where you seem puzzled that others prefer
some improvement in privacy, even if it's not complete.

Some people value digital privacy more than others. Some value speed and convenience more than others.

Yes, exactly. But the tone in this thread from some of the pro-registering people seems almost hostile. Why?

With Pocketbook, registering will let me buy books from my ereader at at bookstore with mostly books in Russian or Ukrainian, and access from my ereader to a Goodreads/Storygraph/Librarything-kind of social network that I've never heard of elsewhere. (Note: My ereader is a few years old, this may have changed.) In other words, I'm not making any kind of sacrifice by not registering.
