		incangold 4 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Gmail AI gets more intrusive Important content and information I want is on YouTube. I pay a YouTube subscription. I have ADHD. YouTube shorts are poison. I don’t want them. I keep clicking “not interested”. They go away for a bit, they come back, I waste hours of my life scrolling through them before I notice. I click “not interested” 20 more times to get a few days relief… Even when you’re the customer, you’re not the customer.

I think a better way to phrase "if you're not the customer, you're the product" is "we don't want your money, we want you".
