    The biggest defense for this I see is:

    • it’s not bad now
    • it’s not mandatory
    • it will remain unused like the other fields that were previously there
    • you can put anything in it

    Then, tell me, why bother adding this in the first place, exactly at the time governments are looking toward full control of everybody’s computers? If it’s that innocent and useless, either someone really likes throwing shit up, or it won’t stop there.

    And given the slate of other things that “didn’t stop there” in the past few years, you know, it cost nothing to be cautious. Especially if it’s “so useless you won’t even notice it’s there” after all.
