This is an important inflection point. When tokens get correctly priced, all of the insane over-investment in capital will need to draw back: buying data centers, semiconductors, and politicians. Even then, it won't be right-priced wit

So it seems they didn't get tagged for listening to users to sell them targeted ads. No, they got tagged for NOT doing this but claiming they could. The victims here were not the users but the deceived advertisers. Everything about thi
