The feature is not the problem, it is indeed good that we have these kind of advancements as a platform.
Problem are those who abuse the platform, like Facebook or YouTube.
Want to make an actual difference? I see two ways (each impacting the world differently, though):
1) Boycott abusers. Don't use their apps. Don't give them your money. Call your data back to you, demand them erase your data from their servers (in some countries they must abide by), and go to their competitors.
2) Grow better in your area and, instead of ranting on people online who only wanted to help, seek to have voice in the Working Groups, Consortiums and Committees.
You are simply wrong - the feature is the problem.
If I browse the internet randomly I regularly bump into sites abusing various things you would consider "advancements", things like notifications and picture-in-picture.
The reason they are able to abuse these features? Because the features have been designed wrong.
Yes, we should have picture-in-picture, but only if I want it, not when the website developer wants it. We should have notifications, but only when I expressly ask for it, not so every website out there can spam you with "bs-news.com would want to send you notifications? Allow / Deny" dialogs.

Your non-solutions are not amusing.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
