Expectation: Apps offer account deletion, finally empowering the user.
Reality: Apps no longer support seamless account creation and instead redirect the user to a website to register, user can no longer manage any aspect of their account from the app.

- danaris 5y agoNot the GP, but seems to me the assumption there is "companies will do everything in their power to make it hard for you to stop making their numbers go up", whether those numbers are actual money, user data, or just total user counts. Alongside, of course, the assumption that "companies don't respect their users in any way, shape, or form." These seem like assumptions which, while they certainly have exceptions, are well borne out by the available data.
