Not the parent but: Technical details I cannot think of anything off the top of my head; my issues would be with his motivations. He ascribes things to malice

  > He ascribes things to malice that could be easily attributed (and rightfully should be) to incompetence or out of touch with the customer. So you're ascibing spying, tacking, inserting ads etc. all to "incompetence". Interesting. I'd definitely say it's malice. It's not "out of touch with the customer", it's making money at the expense of the customer.

    It definitely wasn't malice, but feel free to believe in whatever makes you feel better. The way people like to throw around words like "malice" and "evil" without seeing the ridiculous hyperbole is beyond me.

      You can say it wasn't malice, just 'business' or something like that. But in that sense, war also isn't awful, just 'business' etc. I am on the other hand amazed at how much Slack people are willing to give multinational corporations that don't presumably even have them on payroll.
