two thumbs up.

with our own set profiles, we could opt out of gambling, loot boxes, and alcohol ads too. I've been suggesting this for some time now.

But you don't need to run a giant spying system to make that happen, so the companies whose moat is their giant spying system don't want to even try that. They also happen to have all the users/eyeballs (they need them for their spying system, in addition to serving ads to them). So it's hard for anyone else to try it to see how well it works.

I was going to delicately skip that point but what the hell, what's a few rungs up the watchlist these days anyway.

I would like that. Or even a scheme where they can collect data, but it's stored on my local computer so I can edit it and delete it (granted I know there's a ton of issues with that, but there is w/ the current scheme also)
