All superhuman is doing is giving access the same tech that every company uses to monitor emails sent to individuals. If you don't like it (and you absolutely shouldn't), then don't use superhuman and turn of automatic image downloads in your email client.

The problem is that the person that "doesn't like it" isn't the user of Superhuman, it is the recipient, who doesn't get a choice as to what email client the sender is using.

And my point is that a large percentage of emails sent contain tracking pixels already. Privacy conscious recipients should already have automatic image downloading disabled.
