    It’ll be abusive to users, not customers. Their customers are advertisers, not the users.

      Normally I’d be like “oh god, semantics”

      Not abusive to customers (advertisers) at first. Until they have a lock in and then they’ll start abusing them too. That’s the third step on the enshitification pathway.
