Always Remember “If it’s free, then you’re the product.” The only thing truly free in this world are those small IKEA pencils.

I don’t know, whenever i go for a new pencil, i end up leaving with a new couch or mattress. So is it really free!?!

Always remember something that’s categorically false? See, e.g., most FOSS.

Never installed honey because I knew it was too good to be true somehow.

There’s no way you make that much money to pay all these influencers on a fucking free addon without a catch

I just always assumed they made it back by stealing the absolute shit out of your data (which to be fair, they almost assuredly do).

That and I assumed they get a cut from the shop. Well, I guess they did get THE cut…

I feel bad for the content creators, even if it’s kind of funny to see LTT’s sponsor scam them instead of their audience for once

That wasn’t at all what I was expecting. I always figured that Honey had to be somehow skimming a bit off the top with their coupon codes, but I had no idea they were straight-up overwriting affiliate cookies. This feels illegal, or at the very least it should be illegal.
