Because they want to.
It's amazing the institution of marriage has lasted this long. It seems that nearly everyone thinks it's torture.

Yeah, and we just celebrated our 40th year of 'torture' in isolation.
Which wasn't so bad. We dislike most restaurants as they are too noisy and all the same.
We are very good cooks and made an amazing Salmon Wellington for our dinner.
And all the wine we wanted as we didn't have to drive home.

They are saying that this may end up being an annual virus like the flu or common cold. So, in that respect, you are correct. Of course the death rate is about 4 or 5 times that of the flu (may be higher), but people will get use to it and take it for granted. History is a bitch; even when death is on the line, people learn to accept what they can not change.
I have been doing research on many subjects resonantly. Did you know that approximately 39 thousand deaths in the USA can be contributed to MSG additives in foods. That is higher than the average number of people dying from the flu each year. Of course that was a shallow research dive and I do not know if that is correct, but it is amazing what people will accept (or ignore) and take for granted.

Live to be 99, then be very careful. 
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

It may sound a bit cold-blooded of me, but Caiman! You can do better!
That rumor's a real crock, and don't think I amphibian about that, either: honest.

Is anyone else as tired as I am of every single web-site asking me to allow them to show notifications?
|
|
|
|
|

I've considered setting up a browser in a VM and saying yes to every notification/push request I get there. I wonder how long it would take for it to become totally unusable because of the notifications coming in.
How many people say yes to them? Must be enough to make it worthwhile.

I'm curious, what happens if you say yes? What's the mechanism?
Really I don't know what happens and too lazy to google a train load of TL;DR

Also tired of ones that want to access your location.

That I have turned off at the OS level. I only allow the Weather tile and maps.google.com to access location. (If I didn't use google's navigator on my phone I'd disallow it as well.)
