Have we not been paying attention to the last 10 years with respect to privacy concerns surrounding ad tech? There’s things about shopping that are monotonous and annoying and there are things that are pleasant and fun.

It does make sense to let a bot handle routine things like toilet paper and dog food but we already solved stuff like that with subscriptions.
