Sadly these days, it’s a hold over from boomer managers making the decision that services require logins, which in turn require accounts and emails. So gen-x managers who were taught by boomers do the same thing. It’s systematic really.

I don't think it's boomer managers doing that, necessarily; I think it's an unholy alliance of liassez-faire tech bro entrepreneurs and the ~~propaganda~~ marketing industry.
