And for all those reasons, some suit is probably trying to have it shut
down and people sued.  After all, cramming advertising down your throat
and choking up your whole machine is what computing is about these days;
anything less is robbing the starving music/movie execs, forcing them
into lives of poverty that only allow them to maintain one private jet
