Back in 2009 my family member was a partial owner of an electronics recycling facility in northern California. I worked in warehouse at times and I can tell you from experience that everything was incinerated or recycled. They had huge deals at the time with Apple and Lucent. Part of the deal was that all the precious metals that were recovered were given back to the companies for manufacturing. Most surprising thing for me was that the cost of insurance was one of the most expensive things on the books because of the amount of precious metals they had on hand at any given time.

I haven't seen the video but if they are talking about the secretary problem the caveat is that you can't go back to the previous options. You can do that when trying to a find a partner... sometimes.

Anecdotally, I listen to a podcast where they make money off merch and Patreon only. No need for advertising.

OP, how did you track location? If it's IP address then it could be someone in the US using a VPN. If I'm on T-mobile my IP says I'm in Seattle so DFP will show me ads for Seattle but I'm in SF.

It's not the same. It's handing out coupons to people who are hungry and are looking for food; not people in the waiting area.
