Not available in Europe, UK and Canada, but in California. Interesting

On a side note, I love that article image that they used. The contrast it's trying to portray is so chef's kiss

Dafuq...
I found this in my settings. I never know if the option is on or off... It's on, right?

When you enable it it says below that "do not sell or share is now active"

That message is not visible for me. It just shows my email address and the option to save preferences or to exit
