Is there any good alternative to myAnimeList or would you recommend I go back to the spreadsheet?

We value your privacy, that's why we'll sell your data to anyone that is willing to pay us money. We will sell it to literally a thousand different companies which will mix and match and resell you data to thousands more

It so so so so extremely angers me that companies ALWAYS FUCKING LIE.

We value your privacy

FUCK YOU YOU DO NOT

We're pissing u on your back and we tell you that you're getting a refreshing shower, please thank us for this insult!

Just be fucking honest that you don't give a shit, money is your only bottom line, and you would rape and murder my mother if you even thought it would make you money. Fuck all of you

I want a law that says that companies cannot behave like this. You cannot say "your call is important to us" every 2 minutes while I've been waiting on the phone for three hours to be able to return your piece of shit product that arrived broken, but you were too cheap to invest in basic customer support.

I want marketing and advertising outlawed. Completely. It's allowed for companies to lay out their products, but you're not. allowed. to. lie. No "we're the best!" Fuck you, you're the absolute worst. A company like Comcast should be forbidden from claiming they're good at anything as they suck at everything and only manage to continue to exist because of fucking lying through their teeth with their marketing.

these sort of shit popups is just the next logical step that starts literally with the first words being an absolute lie

Fuck this shit

They do value our privacy, but they just mean they're putting a $ amount on it, not that they care about it
