It should tell us something that corporations will gleefully scrape up as much of our data as possible (even if we don't use their services) but trying to get info out of a corporation (even stuff you have a direct legal entitlement too) is like getting blood from a stone.
Honey hasnt found me a coupon in probably over a year. Idk how it didn't click to me until now that its just more spyware. Theres no way the big corps are just okay with people paying less for evwrything unless they get something else out of it
