Just reading this and the parent post it is still amazing to me how much effort we expend to attempt to force a sale/advertise. We’re even calling it “pay to acquire users”, you don’t earn your users anymore, you buy them. Entire, very wealthy, industries exist around this one concept that users don’t want but businesses just love. Ranting yes, but interesting still.
