The ironies of reading articles about the pathologies of the 2019 digital economy are... well... The publications where you might read about the problem are likely contributers to it. From the EU, before you read about companies abusing your privacy you first go through their "consent" page, maliciously designed to prevent readers from preventing "the Oauth family" from giving whatever data they can get on you to advertisers. Then you get to read the article: "I’ve never understood exactly what it means when a company says it values my privacy. If that were the case, data hungry companies like Google and Facebook, which sell data about you to advertisers, wouldn’t even exist." ... TC's modus operandi & business model appears to be the same. On many occasions I have read an article bemoaning fake news that was framed by "native ads," pretending to be articles, and promoting fake science (one wierd trick), apocalypse cults and worse.
