I’ve started getting these. Its a little odd. The latest one I received told me it shipped “2 camera and 1 kitchen item”. The camera items were a baby monitor and a mount for the baby camera and the kitchen item were coffee filters. So I guess it’s accurate but kind of a useless description.
Same, I’m not sure who thought this was actually going to be helpful. Instead it just means I need to figure out exactly which item it’s talking about in the email
They don’t want Google having access to all of the juicy customer behavior/interests and product pricing information. Any privacy benefit for end users is purely coincidental, but very welcome. Though, I’d hope anyone that cares about privacy even a little bit is staying far away Gmail and others like it.

Yeah, I’ve made a rule that just marks them as read and archives the. right away, no point seeing them at all when they’re so useless.

Maybe it was a privacy thing? Like they don’t want to put “we shipped your ENORMOUS DILDO” in the subject and body of the email.
Or for a more reasonable example, stuff like contraceptives to people in places with repressive governments like Kansas.
