    When it comes to tools that help you stay informed, I’d say the opposite is true.

    If one wants to maintain ignorance, they should have to do so at their own inconvenience.

        Whether they are effective or not is definitely in question, but they are unquestionably intended to be informative. If they irritate you, you have the ability to exercise your right to block them.

        You being annoyed at something you don’t like isn’t a reason to not have it.

            That thread was filled with people downvoting anyone who even attempted to disagree. It was also full of people claiming bias and then not backing it up with a single source, link to offending pages, etc. so yeah no wonder it was full of people saying they hated it. Anyone who said otherwise (like myself) got fucking reamed.
