> Many website will request my personal physical address for trivial matters like billing or delivery.

Some will even require it for no actual reason at all.

Do I need to give my living address when I buy a sandwich? Then why would I need to when buying an online service?

Similarly, fast foods nearly all have these automated kiosques. They don’t need any info. So why do they require an email address when ordering to the table through the app, while in the restaurant?

They don’t need them. They just demand them because they can and everyone online is used to giving them without a second thought.

I can’t wait for personal data to become digital radioactive waste.
