It's tracking how well ads perform without tracking individual users. Tracking ads isn't the problem. Tracking users is the problem. Before this the only way to track ad performance was by tracking users. This is a way to track ad performance without tracking users.

More important than who works there is who inherits Gabe's ownership of the company. A new owner can completely change a company and drive out or fire anyone who doesn't go along with the new direction. Look at what happened with twitter when Musk took over. Or his inheritors could take Valve public and introduce all the issues with that.

Bit hypocritical of the US when they themselves recently passed a divest-or-ban law against a speech platform citing foreign influence and also uses police to violently disrupt protests

It's both, really. It amplifies everything, both good and bad. There are a lot of amazing things that have come about because of the Internet, as well as a lot of awful shit. It's easy to overlook the good stuff and only see the shit.

It would depend on how rare the rarest endings are. If there are only a handful of copies of one of the endings and the handful of people that got it don't engage with the online fan community (not everyone who reads books are online about it), those people might not even know there are different endings, let alone that they have a rare one.
