Do you think its unfair how smart phones and e-mail are becoming more and more required for things that never needed them in the 1990s?

Do you wish you could do everything you enjoy without needing either of those things?

I want to play new video games without internet or phone numbers or e-mail or user accounts.
I want to have a bank account without needing an e-mail.
I want to go to an urgent care without needing to scan a QR code to be seen (and yes, they force you to do that).
I want to buy creative software on disc and not need an e-mail, account, or even internet to obtain and use it.
I want to be able to use payphones again.
I want local stores to stock everything instead of most of it being online only.

Yeah, it’s kinda unfair. Back then you could just walk in, call someone, or fill out a form on paper. Now it’s like you have to have a smartphone or email for the simplest things — even just booking an appointment.

Yeah it all feels like uneeded complications and added expenses.
I'd rather just do everything offline in person.
