It's a dark pattern and a trend. It has nothing to do with "accepting it"

Fine, I used a synonym instead of the exact word you used "tolerate". The point is, the power to tolerate this or not is still in your/our hands. If we only talk and complain, but don't actually reward with our business the companies who do what we say we want, then the future will absolutely be no on board storage, cloud connected, personal-data-harvesting everything.

So it kind of does have something to do with accepting (or not) these things.

Nah I don't see any reason to tolerate shitty, greedy practice. I'm calling them out not discussing about practical viability.
