    I think a better analogy would be paying for an all you can eat buffet, but every time you go up for a plate, Google shovels some of whatever they want onto it.

    Oh sure, they try to guess what you might like by tracking your eating habits every time you visit the restaurant, but they still keep putting crap you don’t want on your plate that gets in the way of what you do want.

    Oh, and also, some all you can eat buffets have a plate limit, after so many plates, you can only get a spoonful per trip. And Google still crams on stuff you don’t want.

      By that analogy they’re not even putting crap on your plate, they’re putting stickers on your food telling you to try other food. I don’t want stickers on my food even if they’re advertising something I might like 😭
