To the degree they are foisted on me before I want them, find workarounds to avoid them. Lately I have websites trying to force me to adopt 2fa, but not just any 2fa - I HAVE TO choose facebook or Google ID as intermediary. No. Just, No.
I am heartily sick and tired of being told or having it implied to me that the way I am operating or living my life is wrong or out of date. It is IMPORTANT to me to be the one in control of what I'm doing and what the results of my actions are. "Auto correct" may go jump in a lake.
My take is that I don't mind new features in general being foisted on me by default. It's a way for me to discover. However, I would also like to be able to disable them if required, until I'm ready.
Re: 2FA, I currently use Authy as authenticator. I've found, so far, that when they specify Microsoft or Google authenticators, Authy works as well. But there may be cases where this is not true.
In my post I mentioned Brave Search with its summary AI. It also has a Code AI when it detects that you might want to see some code. They are both contextual but they can be separately turned off as well.

Don't understand blockchain
Yeah, it's not something that's easy to understand at a glance. But it's also not super-complex either, from a conceptual perspective as opposed to the implementation details. But, as with a lot of this stuff, you usually have to consume a variety of sources to get an adequate feel.
This is one of the best introductions.
