The data collection that websites do is objectively wrong, and flies in the face of the core principles of contract law, on which all trading is based.
What’s truly baffling is why you support having value taken from you.
Edit: Also, I feel the need to point out the difference in tone from each of us trying to end the conversation. I offered an olive branch, to meet in the middle, meanwhile you did it in a an obnoxious and shitty way. So again, I’m not calling you an asshole, but you sure as hell behave like one.
