I don't know who needs to hear this, but there is no "preferred ad experience". WTF. It's like asking me which ear I would prefer to get an infection in or whether I would "recommend excel to a friend". Data science folks at every company have lost their collective minds.

"we have inconvenienced our end user for the purpose of begging for data, and we will assume that whatever we collect was given in good faith" is an absolutely wild opinion to hold in this year of our lord 2025.

Powerful people feeding that data into an AI in order to outsource decision-making is both predictable and insane. We are about to enter an epic era of rake-stepping.
