Nah. There’s a a very good reason for that, and it has nothing to do with your privacy. If there wasn’t a email validation procedure, their comments section would be overwhelmed by spam.

The process has been in effect for well over a decade. I wouldn’t worry about that one.

Actually, that was supposed to be two concepts. 1. I would like to leave a comment, but they want a user name and password, and 2. They have drunk the government Kool-Aid, believing that this scam isn’t a government attack on privacy.
My bad.
