Why is there hate for phoneposters?

Phoneposters cannot/will not format their pictures.

Phoneposters cannot/will not archive.

Their browsing history goes straight back to their phone service provider, meaning they're not taking precautions.

They are obnoxious and lazy.

I'm an old man who doesn't like this newfangled technology.

Take your pick.
 
Phoneposters cannot/will not format their pictures.
You can format the pic by attaching and selecting the appropriate option. The phone app thing via Brave misses some features, but nothing significant.
Phoneposters cannot/will not archive.
I do archive, where needed. Some Daily Mail or Grauniad where they fix their spelling and grammar probably doesn't merit it.

There are standard precautions. Pre-pay phone purchased without using my name and address. There are also phone VPNs, but also listed, plus that magazine mightn't be wholly trustworthy.
They are obnoxious and lazy.
Untrue.

My Dad is most likely older than you and basic stuff wouldn't phase him. Suppose he was a technologist, but it's just stuff.

Fake news all of it, well to a very substantial degree. Some are lazy, but I'm fairly sure there's laptop and desktop users here who don't even use a VPN, and are also obnoxious and lazy. There are some matters where all right thinking men follow a particular line or spectrum or school of thought. I do hate harshness, but some people are frankly wilfully thick. I've had personal computers and allied devices for some time, definitely 1990 in respect of a PC (I'm mindful of static and earthing when fitting SSDs, which are the size of thumb nails now, for I dislike deleting stuff).
