Twitter has this algorithm that shows ads based on "interest", but the way it derives "interest" is based on the ads it has shown you, and the ads they show you are mostly garbage. They give you this settings page so that you can see all the "interests" they have forced on you. You can remove those badly inferred interests, but the page resets every day. Twitter is not just a tool with bad defaults, but one that actively disrespects user preferences. "Openly hostile" seems like a fair assessment. But they still have more users than some other place.
