Is employer interviewing then ghosting just the norm now?

I have read for years now that ghosting has become the norm for new hires and employers after interviewing candidates.

While I have my own mixed feelings about this ultimately I have been ghosted a number of times recently. Had 2 interviews with three prospective employers and even follow up calls from the interviewing manager saying they would let me know by X prospective date. Date passes annnnddd silence.

I know this means I have not gotten the job, but for Christ sakes let someone know.
