I woke up at 7AM to an automated Legacy.com email with my friend's death-a-versary in the subject line. The email itself was annoying enough, but what it said made it a cold, thoughtless annoyance: 'Being remembered matters. The flowers you sent last year were a comforting gesture of sympathy and support.' I didn't send flowers. I planted a tree. That's what my friend wanted.
Microsoft OneDrive wanted me to remember one of the darkest times of my life by shoving photos of an abusive ex in my face - photos I had forgotten existed. In a rush of anger, I erased every single one of those photos from digital existence and canceled my OneDrive subscription. There are some things you don't need to be reminded of because you'll never forget them.
