Hehe, denial of service for no reason beyond forced data collection is so quirky! Yeah, capitalism is squeezing the life out of modern culture, but in a fun way!
We can't even browse products in some online shops anymore without a login. That's so infuriating.
Bots can create accounts too. If it indeed was to prevent bots, they would just ask for a captcha test to continue browsing
Not sure how forced account creation would help with either of those. Both are only problems when they already have accounts.
