No one who is outraged by this didn't know this was going on with almost every email tool out there. I don't understand how this manufactured outrage gets hyped, when literally every email tool in existence does this as standard practice. Every marketing email you get from a brand has this tracking. Every customer support email has this tracking. Every feedback form has this tracking. Every receipt for every purchase has this tracking. Every signup form for your kids friends birthday parties has this tracking. Every single pull request notification you get from GitHub has this kind of tracking. Go to your inbox right now pick any email message and view the source. You will most likely find a 1px by 1px tracking pixel.
I imagine anyone who works at any company that uses any kind of digital tool uses this exact same method to track people, so why the outrage here. Go tell your marketing departments to turn off email tracking in Salesforce, or to stop the marketing team from running campaigns with tracking in them.
