    Slight Correction: Your landlord sold your personal information to a company that sends you ads.

    It’s not much different, but this feels just a little bit worse.

    Hey now, lets not exaggerate and hyperbolize. There are types of non-ad data in this message. “Hello!” isn’t an ad. Neither are the links for “Pay Rent” or “Request Maintenance”. By pixel count that has to be at least 3% of the message!

    Also, I’m sure there’s a tracking pixel somewhere, probably embedded in the CDNs for those images so that they can know when and where you opened this message, what type of device your on, etc. That’s creepy tracking data not advertising! (yet)

    Kids these days, never happy with anything.

    Can we just stop? I think we’ve gone too far. I say we take like a week or two, where no one’s allowed to sell or buy anything. Just taking a breather, and realizing how exhausting all of this is.

      Agreed, a week with no work, no packages, no advertisements, and corporations shutting their mouths for 7 days straight would be glorious. Perhaps more people will understand that the world doesn’t need to be how it currently is.
