News at 11. Same company that has an assistant that suggest one should call the boss at 0400 instead of opening the audio book one was started yesterday or even opening HN as I use to do while I enjoy my first cup of coffee in the morning. Same company that thinks a married man with small kids needs to se ads for shady dating sites and hardly any other ad for 10 years. These days it is somewhat more varied but with a heavy dose of pay-to-win war games with female protagonists who can barely fit their b00bs inside the uniform. Same company that mangles my searches, doing these kind of "corrections" transparently with no working way to opt out. Why why why try to insult my intelligence and my wife at the same time? I'm not in a position to short anything meaningful for 5 years but the thought has struck me.

To add, Gmail/Gsuite's spam detection algorithm is utter crap now. People with whom I've been in touch for YEARS, are labelled as spam all the time, disregarding how many times I clicked the "Not Spam" button. All while VERY obvious nigerian-prince tier emails arrive straight to my inbox everyday. How could you possibly mess up something that you already had figured out?

  FWIW, you can use the gmail filter feature to whitelist addresses Setting (gear) > "See all settings" (top button) > "Filters and Blocked Addresses" Click "Create a new filter" (centered in the middle of the form) - fill out the "from" etc. then click "Create filter". [X] Never send it to Spam
