I cannot think of a piece of software that I want on my computer less than something like this. Literal voluntary malware.
You know, I wonder at times if I’m just a Luddite missing the boat. I mean… I’m not perfect, bound to happen at some point. But then I see comments like this and I no longer feel like I’m the only one just staring at my computer screaming “BUT WHY???” So, thanks I guess.
I'd use it on occasion if there were a reason to, but I just can't conceive of any possible benefit to this. Like, OAI, pretend you want me to buy in and tell me what the use case is.
WAIT!
And it can't be a personalized experience that shows me only the things I'm most likely to want to buy (or the things most likely to convince me I want to buy something).
NOT YET!
And it can't be to make sure I never have to experience something on the internet that challenge any of the assumptions that keep me comfortable and happy.
Okay. Now you can go.
