Often it's worse, as in:
WeSales/Marketing falls in love lust with the outer appearances of some newfangled technology and arranges the marriage to us...

and when the next new thing comes along, they marry that to us as well.
(yes, polygamy - sales/marketing subscribes to the l.ron.hubbard/mormon version of 'the art of war', suits and all.)

and just when you think they've forgotten one of your earlier partners, they remind us that were still married to it. nothing is forgotten, nothing is off-limits (except independent thought).
This internet thing is amazing! Letting people use it: worst idea ever!
