If I was making malware, I’d describe it as anti-malware and use webpage take-overs to advertise it. That way people would think it was anti-malware. Who wouldn’t want a FREE Scan?

Every time I plug in a drive... Google tells me I can upload the contents to their servers... (ಠ_ಠ)

Twitter: we’d like to text you about everything that happens on our site... that way, you don’t even need to go to our site! Isn’t that a great idea?

Twitter has come up with 13 reasons to email me. That’s 10 more reasons than any sane person would come up with. Seriously, does ANYONE read “Tips on Twitter business products?”

“Hi. I came to your site today to see if you had information on a tablet, but I couldn't actually find the information because the whole site went dark and a big blue box asking me for my email address popped up in the middle of my screen. Naturally, I panicked because I'm already on the best buy email list, or I was until I received 5 separate emails this last week and unsubscribed. The fact that I'm now being accosted to be back on the list must surely mean hackers are trying to get my information. Please ensure your website has not been hacked by hackers so I can safely continue browsing.“

I literally tried applying for a job at Instagram just so I could complain about this. They haven’t contacted me for an interview yet... it’s been a few months, but I still have high hopes

I shop at Best Buy once a year, usually because I can’t wait for shipping. Best Buy emails me 4 times a week with “valuable information about exclusive offers, sales, events, and news about new products and services from Best Buy.”

I know, I’m a monster for not wanting these messages clogging up the drain of my inbox, but at least I know I can resubscribe by CALLING A 1-800 NUMBER... 

Someone needs to take Best Buy’s technology certification away from them. They are clearly no longer qualified to deal with these things.

Ah yes, GadgetsNow.com. I’ve spent the last 10 years wondering why I kept missing their updates, it turns out I’ve never actually been to their site before. In fact, I’d never heard of them until just now! Thankfully, after browsing their site for 25 milliseconds, I was able to find the feature that lets them ping me, 24-hours a day, and I’ll never miss an update about... um... ...gadgets? Time? Watches? Do they talk about watches? I don’t even know what this site is about... But, I’m sure I will soon.
