True.
Not sure how paying for this service makes it any less likely that DDG will flip a switch to make that targeted advertising money though. That temptation will exist either with a paid service or a non targeted ad supported service.
- vinaypai 4y agoNothing is guaranteed, but at least you are the customer not the product if it's a paid service. I have very little tolerance for companies that double-dip though. I subscribed to the New York Times for a while, but cancelled, in part, because they still stuffed their pages with ads both explicit and implicit.
- tlholaday 4y agoWhat are some of the reasons you expect a $4.25/week digital subscription to have fewer ads than a $20/week newsprint subscription?
- vinaypai 4y agoYou need to be explained why it's cheaper to publish news to a website than print physical papers every morning and deliver them to homes across the country every single day in time for it to be relevant?
- shukantpal 4y agoLmao show the numbers then. Is the cost of printing 75% of the newspaper- probably not.
