Great essay on the dehumanizing effect of "appify-ing intimacy" and turning bodies into product. Many wonderful quotes & observations.

i think i'm just using a broader scope of "transaction" where any interchange of anything, including information of any kind, is a transaction, like one sees in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transactional_analysis …
ok, I was taking it in a narrower sense, and this is informed by my experiences in the business world. I believe there is a tension between transacting and relating. And this is OK; it's just where you demarcate your scope of concern.
Transacting is interacting with a finite horizon on your care for the counterparty's outcome. And that has a social norm component: it's OK to give someone an old shoe and say you don't care about the shoe or about their life with the shoe.
