I turn it off as well and for the same reason. I don't like that sort of
stuff happening on it's own.
Probably an old guy thing. Were the guys that liked the follow feature
younger than 30?
Anyone that young wouldn't remember the years when this sort of thing
worked

I'm surprised you are having such trouble with arrays. I do that all the
