Please don't engage in this blatant political activism and flamebait here. This is anti-intellectual and not what I want to see on HN.

I agree that something needs to be done about the ad industry and rampant data collection, but your emotionally manipulative comments are not it, and actively make it harder to discuss solutions to the problem.



How so?


> Enough of this waiting for virtuous entities to address legitimate concerns of the public.

> The "ad industry" is a cancer and we need legal protection against this "industry".

Emotional pleading, charged language, snuck premises.

> The solution is political not technical and definitely can not be left to "the market".

Obvious political pandering/dogwhistling.

> Haven't you had enough?

Obvious call to action.

Throughout the whole comment, zero logic or reasoning, zero useful information, zero actual solutions presented.

This comment is devoid of any value whatsoever and completely inappropriate for HN.

I wouldn't even want this on Reddit.
