yeah it should be illegal to ad / track users who have paid

given how crappy the ads ecosystem has become to browsers, if I'm paying for something, I want out of all of that

legislation should make a bright line here. I don't want to see an ad in a taxi, on an airplane, in the dentist's office, and certainly not if I've paid for nyt

maybe carve out limited 1st party tracking, maybe not

It should be illegal to ad / track users, period. Oh hello GDPR, I didn’t see you there.
