Browsing for mobile phones on the Telstra Shop website (it comes up when you do an “I’m Feeling Lucky” search for ‘mobile phones’ on Google), I came across the following maddening features:
When you do a search [link] it lets you make unnecessary features compulsory in your search, but it doesn’t let you exclude them. [...]
