Not really. Try to buy different, I dare you. Used to be possible. Now we just accept it. You young folks, no idea how it used to be.

I bought a microwave recently. I read a bunch of reviews, tried a few in shops. When I press the big button it starts.
My TV is pretty new. It doesn't lag or show ads because I didn't buy an ad-subsidised one.
I have a dozen different restaurants I can go to. If I feel like human interaction, I go to ones with humans. If I don't, I go to a vending machine.
I'm quite happy having cars not run me over in the street. I've visited countries with more "freedom" and I can't say that I cared for it.

Ok maybe you did that, awesome to be you. Doesn't mean the other thing isn't pervasive and a problem.
Hitting roadblocks constantly (I travel, coffee shops are where I find them) is getting to be the norm. Never mind apologists, it is a there.
