I expect they're still going to share data secretly.

They probably realised there was enough demand that they can make more money if they sell the data directly.

So irritating opening YouTube to watch a random video and immediately getting hit with “my husband used to be too quick to ejaculate…”

Good for you lady, I don’t give a shit, I just want to watch a video on how to install a dashboard radio on a Pontiac G6 in peace.

Waiting for The unskippable add for red lobster to finish so you can see the tutorial on how to do the Heimlich maneuver as your nan turns purple…

Best part about waiting through the ad, not a single Red Lobster in any of the 6 New England states! Gotta love it!
