Because I’m sure those advertisements weren’t curated by digesting user interaction data and selling it to advertisers. And I’m sure those sales aren’t further used to build profiles to sell to advertisers. /s
Just because they got a dumb Stanley cup shilled by their favorite influencer doesn’t mean they’re not ultimately the product.
