A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I don't think they'll care or miss you, to be honest. It's not like they're making money off you.
You underestimate the amount of data google collects from it's users, and then sells to advertisers, whether or not they view ads
Who would pay for data on a person you can't advertise to?
Do you seriously think advertisers buy each user's data individually, and sometimes Google goes "oh hey guys just a heads up, that individual is using an ad blocker 👍🏼"?
No, but having a handful of people who will never see their ads devalues the whole package.
