    Not just the time theft but they have become unreasonably privacy invading. When I still used Reddit last year, despite having targeted ads disabled & Android apps supposedly being sandboxed, I got ads related to my workplace after accepting a job offer, car ads after installing a used car sales app, and ads for snake oil related to a chronic health condition I have that I’d been researching. Now that I’m off corporate social media and have pi-hole running & uBlock origin in my browser, I haven’t seen a single targeted ad all year. When I deleted my Meta accounts I requested my data first and I could see the companies I had bought from that then told Meta I’d been shopping there which was really eye-opening as to how bad it is.
