"We sincerely thank you for your continued support"

I know it's not the main thing to take issue with. But the insincerity of those 'sincere thanks' pisses me off to no end. Like they magically found a way to claim we support them by saying so. Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining, at least be upfront about fucking me over.

I always fume with anger when some website captions their cookie banner "We care about your privacy". No you fucking don't and the dialog where you have to manually uncheck 10+ individual cookie types and also their fucking"legitimate interest" (no, there isn't any legitimate interest about my data).

And also when some company whose only purpose is to make money sends me e-mails beginning with "Hello, ". We aren't friends, we are business partners. If I'll write you about let's say a RMA, I won't address you "David" either. Keep it professional, will ya, ya smeee-heeee.
