    They may have a specific corpo-speak word for it that they have codified into law with liberal applications of money… but in effect it is still advertising.

    Arguing the etymology is like a child abuser arguing the difference between pedophilia and ephebophilia. At the end of the day, they’re still a child abuser, no matter how they define it.

      Then cancel your amazon…

      I’m just telling you how the world works and why what you’re seeing still counts as “ad-free”

      i agree it sucks. So cancel your sucky service and don’t try to compare me to a child abuse apologist

        You’re trying to excuse apologist language. Telling me to define the world by their terms, not how the world is. If you want to accept that their way is the right way, that’s on you. But when you tell others, that’s just spreading their propaganda.
