Good point, but also it’s not that they will lose all of the user data they sell if people switch off Chrome, just the parts that chrome collects.

If they were blocking ublock users from accessing any google products then it would be purely a ‘we only care about ad revenue’

It would be very interesting to see the internal data they use to make these decisions, but also knowing tech these decisions were probably made by a series of mid level managers sufficiently sucking the air out of the room until a critical mass was hit to make this happen

Open minded but not sure I agree: is it really on the consumers to ensure that a product won’t completely stop working for them?

*Some exclusions may apply

Who the hell doesn’t?

You’re the one out online here spewing your opinion that what other people care about isn’t important.

Once again you reveal yourself a hypocrite

Went silent real fast eh?

Stereotypes exist for a reason. They aren’t made up, non-existent characteristics.

As a straight white man, I’m vilified by the mob regardless of my positions on anything, and that in itself is a stereotype.

You rationalized deserving vilification, and whinged about what a victim you are. You can’t think this conversation is in your favor.

Got it, so you have a major victim complex and don’t really have a rational argument for the rest. Thank you for at least being clear

Do you see any merit to the pushback against such media?

You sound like you favor rationalism, and I agree with dismissing people who are crazy, but setting crazy people aside, do you see potential harm in promoting negative racial and ethnic stereotypes?

Yep “I spent zero effort on you and I think you’re stupid enough to feel special about a robocall”

I’m out of the loop, what’s the deal?

We were all so innocent (relatively) then

The amount of whinging and bootlicking from people taking Spez’s side was insane before I left for good.
