Genuine question here Be honest ...How many of you feel somewhat violated by all this as we speak despite the good reasons for why it's happening.

Nailed it.
We've taken a conservative approach whereby: (1) we're now not venturing out for food and groceries as we are having them home delivered; (2) the local medical practice are doing Webex consultations so that's another reason off the list and (3) almost everything else is on the not necessary list.
