New ask Hacker News story: Tell HN: No, I won't enter my WORK email
Tell HN: No, I won't enter my WORK email

What is it with this "enter your work email"? What do you care about which email address I use? There is only one reason to ask for it, to research the company and spam us. I even saw services where I couldn't use my Gmail address, seriously? Yeah, I get it. You want to sell something, everybody does. But this triggers me hard. I hope every service which uses this dark pattern to go out of business.
