I think it’s easy to focus on “only 900 users” and completely gloss over the fact that thirty six BILLION FUCKING DOLLARS were shoveled into this dumpster fire. That’s an inconceivable amount of money that’s being sucked from consumers (aka humans) via ad costs passed on in the form of higher product fees so 900 people can traipse around a server being supplied by what I’m convinced is an ultra-rich robot in human skin.
Someone reboot this reality please, I fucking hate it.

This is what annoys me when people go on about ads making sites free.
Like the shitty uk government likes to say, it’s free at the point of use! but you still paid for it!
Even if you never buy the products advertised, no doubt the ad tax is slapped on every product that company sells. So you’re paying companies to advertise, then stalk you afterwards and yet people still don’t get why ads got so toxic now.

There’s no way that number is right. I simply don’t believe it.
The 900 or the 36,000,000,000?
I definitely believe the 900

What I’m getting out of this post is that we could have ads instead of taxes.
