    I’m not parroting anything. I just also realize the vast scale of the data imo makes most of it worthless outside of demographics ad targeting lol

      Not when each point is matched to a unique machine (i.e. user) ID. It’s not anonymous, it’s “anonymized” which is just snake oil (replace your actual name with a unique ID).

      Also, I find ad targeting bad enough all by itself.
