    Does it really matter that it was an Israeli advertising company? Would you hold this against any other country?

    I’m just saying, there are upwards of 700 “trusted” partners on some websites, chances are that some of them also try to maximise their profit margins in a similar way. I at least wouldn’t hold it against Ireland, for example, as a nation, if one of their tech firms does the same.

    Don’t blame on colonialism what can adequately be explained by capitalism, or something.

        In this hypothetical, not Ireland, an Irish company. Would you blame the Irish government for actions of an Irish company?

          …yes. Not “company from ireland” but “company run by the irish gov.”

          because that’s what israeli companies are.
