Its worse because you know the rules of email at the outset before you
start playing.
Once people become familiar with wave then protocols and accepted
behaiviour will emerge, but for now, I'm finding the "Oh I added you to
a work/holiday/pictures of my cat! wave" phenomenon irritating as well
Is it possible to remove yourself from a wave and make it so people
can't add you back on?
I guess I would have expected some sort of 'you have been added to this
wave, do you accept?' notification and a notification to all other users
that you got added

It's impossible to actively manage what waves YOU get attached to.
In essence it treats the world as a great big friendly share
everything playschool, where nobody even has surprise parties let
alone personal private conversations.
Surely email has the same issue? Nothing stops me from bccing or forwarding
emails from supposedly private conversations to third parties there. I'm not
saying that a better way to manage participants wouldn't be welcome, but surely
the existing one is no worse than those of older technologies?
