Lots of popular Youtubers are already there, and they strip the sponsor segments out of their content too.

For anyone struggling, lemmy web interface added the colon into the URL for the blog post link. Here’s a clickable version without the colon:

Yeah except one is a private entertainment establishment, and the other is a public transportation service.

The perfect consumer-facing example of this is Clear at the airport.

Instead of waiting in line to have your ID checked by a TSA agent, you let an iPad take your picture and then have an agent walk you to the TSA agent and vouch for you.

The whole iPad thing is marginally faster than just checking your ID by hand, so really they just found a way to monetize cutting the line. This provides zero net benefit to society except for extracting money from people for something that’s supposed to be free.

Also, when everyone has Clear, we’ll be back in the same boat with long lines and they’ll probably charge more for Clear+ or some shit.

You can also request all of your posts on Reddit in a neat little csv. Takes about a month to get though.
