How so? The vast majority of people seem to think that riding a bike on a road with a car is extremely dangerous, but they don't think of driving that way.
Good thing I don't do Strava. Every day as I commute, I break the speed limit by at least 10mph including in the dark and the wet. On a good day, that differential can exceed 20mph. If I received idiotic emails from Strava, it might provoke me into riding faster than I should. No telling what it would do for other non Strava users who like to bomb down hills.
