I agree that meeting with users will only make people burn out faster.

I mean most web developers nowadays work in a glorified version of manipulating users, spying on them, and / or shoving ads into their face.

I've yet to meet anyone who would feel happy to meet the person that sells them out to advertisers online. I'm sure there are users that love all of their YouTube recommendations and that check their Facebook feed hourly. But those are probably the people that make you question humanity when you meet them...
