Etiquette

More about the book

Life is complicated right now. We are all connected, and everyone has a voice, yet bigotry and systemic oppression are louder than ever. Have you ever wondered: Is this Racist? Sexist? Homophobic? Transphobic? Islamophobic? Interestingly, this email server, AOL, doesn’t recognize "Transphobic" as a word, but does for "Homophobic" and "Islamophobic." I know I should switch from AOL, which the Publisher claims has poor security, but I question if it really matters. AOL is politically right-leaning, similar to Google and Gmail, so what’s the difference? AOL users are older and resistant to change, while I find Gmail frustrating with its constant updates. I believe email will soon be obsolete, though I could be wrong—like I was about Twitter, which thrived due to unexpected political events. Social media often leads to personal blunders, affecting everyone. AOL must cater to its older demographic, which may mean better security, as they cater to users who struggle with technology. So, Publisher, take that to TikTok. The answer to your questions is yes—if you have to ask, the answer is yes.
