Staring back
from the abyss

Or whatever it's called.

I watched one Youtube video on keto dieting. In less than two hours I've received four emails with something about keto dieting in the subject line. Mad

And don't get me started on the pop-up ads for whatever you've looked at previously.

I swear, the greatest and the worst invention in the history of the human race in the damned internet. If it went away tomorrow I would jump for joy.

Bring back Encyclopedia Brittanica!

Look at it this way. Each email you get like that costs them money. Since it is not effective on you, it's a dead loss for them.

Love the internet.

The accumulated knowledge of the entire world can be found there for free.

That's the problem with most social media sites: If you don't know what their product is, you're not their customer, you're their product.

Of course, that's the agreement when they're giving you content apparently "free".

A better, anti-tracking browser like Brave versus using the app can help to the extent it can.
