There is jump going from "I see this happening" to "this is what user's want." For example, the trend is also towards massive tracking, more ads, and heavier and heavier pages. Users don't want these things,

Worth noting that in countries with polygamy, it's not like women are afforded more choice than in their Western counterparts. Quite the contrary. The type of thing you see is a poor farmer marrying off his very young daughter as t

But that is exactly the current system we have in the US and UK. He can divorce and marry you, but that "frees up" his ex-wife to appease the roiling crowd of violent men. I'm being facetious, of course, because who thinks a
