I think there's a little more at play than just not reading it lol

Loading screens got shorter as tech improved. Now tech is too fast for proper ads so I bet there's going to be intentional delay time added in the future for more ad impressions.

Isn't Netflix exempt from these fees too? Or do they just not allow you to sign up in app and redirect to a browser?

I think there's some irony in Google getting fined for not storing ENOUGH user data lmao

Well didn't they initially want carriers implementing RCS with interoperability between each other to sunset sms? But that didn't quite pan out. IIRC there was a time when Verizon had a limited number of devices that supported RCS but only on their network, similar story with Bell in Canada. Hell at one point even Samsung had RCS but only with other Samsung phones. Fragmentation was rampant so Google took matters into their own hands. Not saying I'm happy Googles at the helm but they didn't start out with that intention.

In theory, sure. But, realistically I can't picture an economically feasible way to transport it.

This right here. If you block ads you're literally worth less than nothing to them and they couldn't care less where you go. You're just a bandwidth leech. I use uBlock, but have some self awareness.

I thought the man was joking then I saw his smooth brained response below. Software patents are cancer and shouldn't exist.
