Yes, but framing is important. Saying "Oh look what our perfect corporate buddies over at Taylor let us do even though it's their call" (a huge lie btw.) vs. saying "We finally got this victory, we can finally do part of what we should've never have been unable to do due to corporate greed, thank you Taylor for getting some sense, it seems like your scrooges still have some semblance of a soul left" is a big difference. As always, the truth is somewhere in between these two extremes. However, I'm inclned to lean towards the latter more than the former on the spectrum.

It's not twitter it's Xitter!

Even its name is ~~full of shit.~~ a hallucination

There, fixed it for you.

Not really. Showing ads and gobbling up data is Google Search's core functionality, and JS is indispensible for that.

Depending on which country you live in and who (or better: what) you are - if you're a McD McEmployee, you'll might personally feel the McWrath for filing the complaint - not just having the weight of theorethical jobs lost on your soul.
