Yeah it’s always been an ad company. And you are correct, blocking apps is new, welcome to the last stage in the ad-blocking arms race. Glad I degoogled my digital life a decade ago.

Yes you can, both are correct.

Thank god it doesn’t… fuck that. Most times it’s bs anyway.

Yeah fuckers… I turned that shit off right away again
