Velocipede Rider in Elk: "@amin Do you really think she will..."

"We care about your privacy!"

Us and our ONE THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY FOUR "partners". Hah ha!

Also fuck off!

Also I just switched off JS and read your fucking article anyway. What you and your partners gonna do about that?

In the real world still, if a person says to you, "This is my partner", that basically means something like, "If you trust me, you can trust them" and/or "this person can speak on my behalf because they know me really well".

But online "partner" apparently now just means "a collection of companies whose names I could not even recount without looking them up in a database or spreadsheet I have somewhere".

I only share my economy with one person and my highest level of trust is with that same person. It's my wife. She is the one person in this world I would give the label "partner".

Apparently I am holding myself back. I need to collect a few more thousand partners.

You should maybe okay that with your current partner first

Do you really think she will mind?

Hard to say, I've never met her. Better safe than sorry, though.

only way to know is to ask, using a popup that covers up the website she’s trying to look at

True by trying to click through she will agree and I can laugh and shout. "Ha HA you agreed, now I can fuck anyone I want!!!!"

Be sure to bury the actual question deep in the "terms of service".

best hide it in the "legitimate interest" category behind a small, gray-on-white print link, so even rejecting all over five thousand questions won't help!

I might not though as the likely outcome is actually zero partners.
