I refuse to be both.
You want me to dodge ads and try to scrape my data from your service in order to use it? Fine.
Want me to pay for the service? Maybe…
I will not support double dipping while pushing ads in my face. Fuck right off.
I remember when cable tv first started the big promise was that since you were paying for it the cable channels would be ad free. Well that lasted about a week.
If that was the case I might actually pay for cable TV.
Yeah, strong feelings of deja vue.
This would be for an ad free version.
But they'd still farm our data so no thanks.
