Don’t open this kind of attachment

Do you open this kind of attachment?

It comes attached to emails…

It comes attached to chat messages…

It comes attached on news sites…

It even comes attached to phone calls.

I call it, the .emosh file.

.emosh is the file extension for “emotion”. Inboxes allow anyone in the world to send you their needs, demands, feelings and gripes. Same with chat; third-party emotions designed to be adopted as your own for their benefit. News sites are paid to do this.

You don’t have to open this kind of attachment, if you don’t want to.

Your system will be so much healthier when you don’t give system-level access to the world.
