“If you are not paying then you are the product” does not imply the negation “if you are paying then you are not the product.” Only the contrapositive.

- fertomatic 8y agoI have been leaning toward news that doesn’t read you back (print newspapers). It is actually amazing how less inflammatory and clickbaity the paper is, even from the same news organizations. Another obvious thing to keep in mind, look at the ads or the embedded ads to understand your fellow readers. E.g. is there outbrain/taboola stuff at the bottom, or ads for something a thoughtful person would be interested in?
- jjeaff 8y agoYa, it doesn't technically imply the negation, but the fact that the negation is not generally the case makes the mantra useless at best and misleading at worst.
