Every site is trying to pull a Bonzai Buddy now.

“We need all your info for advertising, not you can’t opt out unless you make an account and give us your email. Oops, looks like I hid the opt-out under a subheader. Amazon is now profiling you.”

WE USED TO CALL THAT SHIT A VIRUS.

ITS EVERY. FUCKING. WEBSITE. NOW

“Hi I’m going to block this entire site until you give me your info, this is very cool and normal.”

Capitalism ruined the internet. The whole thing is malware now.

    Why are you arguing about that really? What’s so shameful in buying stuff? You think a mostly agrarian country can just build modern industries from scratch? Well it can’t.

    No that’s ridiculous I just don’t understand why that means they “weren’t that good at industrializing really” lmao
