We need to stop calling these sites and services “free”. Anything that’s financed by ads, spying and profiling is not free, the user is paying with their attention, integrity and right to privacy. This is not nothing.

Presently, it’s a shady and dishonest practice since the terms of the transaction are rarely transparent to the consumer; in other words, it’s a scam.

Food service and retail needs to exist, (commercial sales) call centers should be banned and their owners shunned from polite society.

So you simply already need to know what you’re asking it, gotcha. Seems easy enough.

I had a coworker in the early 00s that would repeatedly fail to search for something because she would type “www.goggles.com” into the address bar.

Her blown up remains you mean?

OK, I’m imagining it now.

I’m actually starting to doubt that he’s a force for good in this world…
