The fact is... privacy. If you have a hard time with people wanting to protect their privacy as much as possible, that is not my problem. Privacy, and the lack of it, are real issues. That is a fact, and what I base my desire upon. I have no desire to check my phone, or my camera, everytime I take it out and make sure certain services are turned off. Obviously, if I take a photo of the Grand Canyon, and label it, I don't give a rats behind about that one on the net. You have no idea who I really am, who I have worked for, what capacity I have worked in, or anything else. All you know is what I reveal... and some could be disinformation too. You wouldn't be PBD without a concern for privacy.
You say I don't need reasons, and then go on to say that my reasons (privacy and anonymity) are not fact based... implying that my reasons are frivolous. You have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to me, what I need, what I know, what I want, or where I want it. It may be frivolous to you, it is a large concern for me.
Sorry you are having a hard time with
my desire to pay for something to get removed. It does not make sense to YOU, but it does to me. That's all that really matters here. If you want all those things on your camera, have at it. I have no problem at all with that, and will not question your decision. Nor will I ask you why you want them. That's none of my business. I'm not playing this game anymore. Canon offers a service. Should I ever get a camera that offers to have it removed, I'll pay for it. Have a great day, my friend.
What? you don't care about this? Then quit acting as though you do by disparaging my reasons as "not fact based" (when you don't know what is important in my life, nor the extent of my knowledge) and keep asking me for more info (that I won't give).
I'd want it removed, for my own reasons.
You don't? No problem at all. See how that works? Live and let live.
