I suspect "suggested content" is not going anywhere. the profit incentive is now lower, but it's still in these company's interests to keep you as engaged as possible for as long as possible, and the casino model is the

you could ask that, and you would be right to untouchable numbers have what seems like a pretty arbitrary definition and yet the article mentions the numbers being studied a thousand years ago, which begs the question: why? why not numbers

whether it's allowed or not is probably less pertinent than whether it'll get downvoted. I've never seen a flagged comment that was just "thanks", but I suspect I probably have seen a heavily downvoted one, although

this is a patently bizarre comment. so the library of congress too is illegal? perhaps the federal government shouldn't be able to take photos, or tell the time or keep records
