Users are not required to use one of the "silly" pig images as your review incorrectly mentions.

I lose respect for people who use these services or try this trick. btw: Outlook also blocks this unless I trust the user. IMO, this is a stupid idea and I don’t like it.

Gmail will, by default disable any images within an email unless the reader specifically allows them. I'm pretty sure that this is a feature of most mail providers and email clients.
