- fighterpilot 5y agoIt's good business, though. They want you to click on another link or ad on their site. If they even shared identifying information of the authors, you're more likely to go to google and search for it.

- snarf21 5y agoThis is a misalignment of incentives. They want to click bait you to watching ads, you just want unbiased information.
