Oh boy. Did you somehow miss all the news about data leaks and password dumps etc. being sold on the "dark" web and shit?

Would you mind if I followed you around and noted everything you do and constantly demanded your attention?

The shit done by corporations is akin to a clingy stalker and would be absolutely despised if it was an individual person doing something like that.

As for benefits, which?? In my entire life I have never seen an ad for anything (that I did not already know about via other means) that made me want to look up the product, let alone buy it. Nor do I know anyone who did. In fact, it turns me off from a product if its ad appears too frequently.

Google etc. and various storefronts also almost never recommend me anything that actually matches my interests, beyond just a shallow word similarity, in fact they forcibly shove completely unrelated shit into my searches cause they were paid to. Like searching for RPGs and seeing Candy f'ing Crush.

You know what though, I kinda agree with the potential intent behind your charade:

Yes, LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT ME.

I will gladly TELL companies EXACTLY what I like, and I WANT you to use that. Show me other shit that is actually relevant to MY interests instead of the interests of whomever paid you to shove their shit into my face.

ASK! DON'T SPY! Because you can't ever get it right anyway!
