Every site is trying to pull a Bonzai Buddy now.

"We need all your info for advertising, not you can't opt out unless you make an account and give us your email. Oops, looks like I hid the opt-out under a subheader. Amazon is now profiling you."

WE USED TO CALL THAT SHIT A VIRUS.

ITS EVERY. FUCKING. WEBSITE. NOW

"Hi I'm going to block this entire site until you give me your info, this is very cool and normal."

Capitalism ruined the internet. The whole thing is malware now.

Sure and feel free to hit me with anything other than "dude trust me"

I'm not strawmanning you for any reason other than to force you to take a position lmao.

I view the internet as a way to get information. But reply to my emails at your leisure don't sweat it
