@sneak speaking as a person using email to have control over what I read (therefore, what I think), I don't think this practice is right 🙅🏽♀️
@manil people choose this when they choose gmail. nobody forces them to use gmail.
@sneak I'm no marketing major, but I'd pay money *not * be put in places that aren't the primary inbox that pushes notifications
