I honestly thought this was how it always worked…seems like a good thing if they’re at least appearing to not track people who aren’t signed in, especially since in every other way they will try to get your data fighting tooth and claw. (Not saying they aren’t tracking habits of non account users though)

Ooh “under fire” what’s next, they’re going to get “slammed”? That’ll show em.
