Ugh, never put you email address into a Square point of sale device.

I asked for an email receipt *one time* from *one vendor* and now I’m getting SPAM email from like every company I’ve ever shopped at.

Square does not respect their users’ privacy.

Bought something about a week ago using Square. Sure, I want my receipt emailed to me for this one... the future is now 🙂

Now I’m getting spammed by like every company I’ve shopped at (presumably that also uses a Square point of sale) for the past two years. 😔

Never give your email address to Square unless you want to live in SPAM email hell. 😈

Much better design for Apple’s alarm clock. Designing two screens that are exactly the same and do the totally opposite thing is amateur hour. https://m.signalvnoise.com/design-lesson-consistency-confusion-and-context/

Do you support an ISP breaking Network Neutrality for a reason you agree with, or not because the ISP is acting against its own stated stance on Network Neutrality? 🤔

Represent.us and Jennifer Lawrence have a plan to actually fix the corrupt system.

I’m not going to lie, I was inspired to take action, and the least I can do is share the (11 min) video:
