Your simplification of the issues to steer this into your preferred narrative and conclusion is also asinine.

It's always projection.

I never sent this information to insurance companies. Not my problem if some company tracking me gets faulty info.

I believe the text here is:

"Pay for our product"

"Make your product available for purchase"

I don't see why prison calls need to be filtered out by spam filters

Probably because if they are automatically marked as "legit" spammers will just spoof those numbers.

The phone companies could stop number spoofing if they wanted to, they just don't see the benefit in doing so.

Someone should set up a robocalling system with number spoofing to call phone company execs and law makers to annoy them into stopping it.

She's definitely going to lead the party ticket in 2028, though

After opposing their God-King? I wouldn't be so sure unless they make some drastic changes.

I don't know how much profit you think they're hoping to make from having surge pricing. If they lose 10% of their customers over this that will be a significant loss in overall profit.

People are still going to go to Wendy's.

No they won't. As soon as they are aware the price fluctuates they'll go somewhere else. Wendy's competitors will be watching this to see how many more customers they receive during Wendy's "surge pricing" hours.

Uber "gets away with it" by saying they have a limited number of drivers, and you can always see the price on your phone. Nobody is going to go to a Wendy's if they don't know what the prices are going to be.

I feel like the average Reddit user is more likely to be running Adblock than the average Facebook user.

Best way to get me to not pirate your game and buy it is to have a decent demo available. Against the Storm is a bizarre pitch (Rouge-lite City builder), but they had a good demo that allows unlimited play on the standard biome with a level cap. Was incredibly easy to try it and play enough to decide I like it.

Video game piracy has led to more purchases from me, because I'll download a game to try on a whim that I wouldn't have purchased, find out that's it really good and buy it
