I generally do. I see the words as I think them. Spelling and sound. It’s weird I guess, though I never thought of it being weird until now.

Not exactly, huh? I’m going to be very interested to read the report when the FTC completes their investigation (assuming they follow Senator Feinstein’s request)

Wow, so they must be really overcharging their customers if they have a small % of the market share but such a high run rate?

Not really, you just need to incentivise the behaviour. Pass a law to make it illegal to show ads based on tracking, with executive imprisonment for violations.

Violations of HIPAA have some serious fines, and I've watched executives at all levels take it VERY seriously
