Getting absolutely wrecked with happy birthday emails from corporate senders in a hurry to make sure I know they care exactly enough about me as a person to have someone write a small script to generate marketing emails based on their customer database's Personally Identifiable Information and firehose it out into the internet forever.
Thanks for showing the love, Megacorp Inc. You really seem like a normal human legal entity.

They steal your data and then rub it in. "Hey, happy birthday! Click here to get 10% off that item in your Amazon wish list."
@Jeber butbutbut they must be my friend, right? Only friends say happy birthday! Friend corpo loves me, truly!
@Idle_Threat
I guess so. Even Big Brother is a part of the family.
@Jeber he keeps me safe, doubleplus good.
We were told to expect it from the govt, though, not business. Alas..
@Idle_Threat
Businesses are the government now. One and the same. But they do seem to care about you...and know all about you.
