not so much that they like to be used by companies, but that they don't care enough to change or learn how to stop it. for most people, the idea of giving up their favorite online service because of ads or whatever other predatory anti consumer shit it implements is a little extreme.

as long as it works, the vast majority of people who are not tech-literate will just use it regardless.

Most people sell their time and personal information (including deeply personal stuff) dirt cheap.

In other words, the general population likes to be is okay with being used by companies and really don't give a shit as long as they can watch videos.

I hate that you're right. Not because of you, but because the situation is ridiculous.
