    Even just in my family, the attitude has shifted significantly over the last year. Most of my family members are now critical of it and its effects. Add to this that if ~6B people …

    I think this is the optimal outcome of the “Slop Police.” Normalization of these acknowledgements. Transparency is good, like a journalist declaring whether they have vested intere…
