The main problem with ads is not privacy or security. Those are also real problems, but they're only adjacent issues. Even in a world where every ad was personally vetted by Very Good Privacy and Security Experts, the issue still remains that people keep trying to shove shit you didn't ask for into your eyeballs and/or eardrums in an attempt to influence your behavior in some way. Doing it politely only looks good by comparison. It's still an asshole move.

As long as people keep trying to spin this as a privacy/security thing, companies will keep making token efforts to patch over *those* issues and not addressing the root problem.

Apropos of nothing (and everything):

I signed a thousand books today. Almost all of them were ones I wrote!

Lizardite, a green serpentine-subgroup mineral is surprisingly not named for lizards, but for The Lizard, in Cornwall, also strangely not named for lizards but rather for “Lys Ardh” the Cornish High Court.

I will give Rhodochrosite the art vote. It does appear in jewelry, but really it’s for strictly aesthetic “forbidden bacon” reasons. I mean look at it! #MinCup23
