    Including the opt out link in the announcement article is a good guy move on the writer’s part. Thanks, Kate. You’re a pal.

        How are they going to identify who is opting out without being able to match it to the person in the seat…?

          Your united data is going to be tied to an email. They could just use that. It’s reasonable to see this as further invasiveness, similar to Meta™ account recovery.

        Say you’re from California on the form and it’ll change what you have to enter. You don’t have to put in an address or verify CA residency.
