They are "complaining" (more like reporting) about ads for people who paid to not have any.

Thats just the expats changing the narrative when people started calling them out on it.
Copium29
It's not "at risk", the top dude was caught by some journalists posing as oil companies securing contracts at cop29. Weird this article doesn't mention that.
Now when I open a Google map link my wife sent from messenger, messenger opens a copy of maps inside messenger that doesn't work half the time. Is that excluded from link tax?
When musks puts unskippable ads to go to content instead of reading it almost in its entirety right on the site (with an ad besides it), is that also link tax?
Enshitification of links is what will break the internet. Musk would be the first to sue for this.
Ya can't skip the ads, but you can skip the platform! (I dont use them but yeah hopefully it backfires)
If games had to maintain their servers you'd see a lot less of this cash grab garbage. Good on them for taking the time to do this
"life begins at conception" is real fucking different than "your body my choice". .
You know who else says "your body my choice?". Rapists. The lack of nuance is intentional.
That went from protecting religious values to abusing people real fucking quick right? It was never about that.
It's a mix of that, but also they have to make good on all these "AI investments" that "boost productivity" and allow employees to do more. I'm a principal engineer so it was part of my job to assess how much these tools actually boost productivity and they don't at all. They change where the mental power goes, but it's not really faster and is more mistake prone. If I had to make a comparison, it's a bit like a concorde plane, it's technically faster airspeed, but then you spend all your time trying to make a thing that can shove air out of the way faster than it wants to move (supersonic) and that's just a lot more effort in other areas. Notice concord planes are nowhere to be seen despite existing for decades and being objectively faster. Not worth, but in the AI craze who cares.
They also took advantage of taxpayer funds to boost their profits during the pandemic, and that money is gone now, so if you aren't cutting a big part of your staff, either you didn't take advantage of the pandemic, or you did and you have dead weight. It's important to note that most big tech companies made record profits during that time.
If you were a tech company and you weren't killing off a chunk of your staff, it was a signal something was wrong with your business in some way. It's entirely a speculative stock market thing, which is all that matters these days. They can invent other reasons why they aren't meeting targets.
TLDR; those losses are on another spreadsheet
