They have a 3.9% ("green") tier without a high-risk fee, but I don't think the adult companies qualify that one. I could be wrong, but I didn't find a clear breakdown of who qualifies for each plan on their website. I&#x

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you opt-out, they agree to stop adding to stuff they can identify as yours. That doesn't stop another company from doing the same. And that's the problem. There are so many companies that we do
