But why people?

3 Indian tech workers in a trench coat.

They’ve been trying to make a comeback somewhat recently. I think they saw an opportunity in the uptick of Reddit hate ever since their IPO shenanigans and are trying to pull an UNO reverse on them.

Idk how many people on Reddit now ever even heard of Digg though, let alone used it back in the day, so I’m curious to see how this plays out.

That’s the one!

don’t dead, open inside

Dunno, I’d have to investigate this later. Thanks for the info!

Ja?

OP are you employed at the department of redundancy department?

With how so many services are forcing it upon us, I’d have to disagree.

It’s also getting to be a bit of a chore to block AI elements on all the various websites implementing them, and a few of the worst offenders (Google is one that I know does this) add a random string of characters on the element that serve as a unique identifier that periodically changes and so requires me to readd them to my UBO blocklist. On each device…

It is the most effective solution for sure, though.

You been sniffing willem dafoe’s booty lately, that’s probably why.

They don’t need everyone, just dimwits who think being in a bubble is a good idea. Anyone who isn’t immediately sold based on the post title alone are not their target audience.

Probably made a good deal selling the data they harvested off to the highest bidder(s), not to mention the projected revenue from targeting ads at this demographic.

Truly despicable how openly two-faced these megacorps are with this “protect the children!” schlock they’re using to force us to give them even more of our personal information while actively going against the very principles they claim are the reason for such invasive practices.

or changing their product from a one time purchase to a subscription model, I predict there’s gonna be a lot more of that with this new forced app updates change.

-and then continue doing it because that’s chump change to them.

…at least until I get off work ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I assure you the “why” wont be anything constructive, and the “how” will be excruciatingly detailed for my own benefit.

Essentially I treat their pestering as a great way to exercise my creative writing abilities in the form of insults and deranged methods of penetrating their own orifices.

Tbf there’s usually a custom/other option, which can, and should, be used to explain exactly how and why they can go fuck themselves.

“punishing others based off your beliefs”

Lmao, the sense of entitlement from this one…
