No, its not. Its what they are doing with your responses to those things that are potentially or actually evil. The fact it requires any response on my part, minimal or not, is absurd and unacceptable.

Don't you get that?

I find this kind of response unfathomable.

Cookies and ad-based tracking have been around for years. I find characterizing that behavior as "evil" is patently absurd.

So no, I don't "get" that. I don't see what you're so up in arms about.
