    The problem is that they already do that. They get the rich people to pay them to push an agenda, then they lock everything behind a paywall, then they advertise the fuck out of everything. You have to pay with your time and money to be advertised to on a biased service.

    If I could pay a subscription and not have them collect and sell my data and advertise in every 3rd square inch of the site, I would. But that isn’t happening when they know they can make more money by taking advantage of the customer.

    That’s why I’m here… but this is as much of an echo chamber as any other social media site.
