All due respect to my fellow lemmings, but the ones in these comments are vastly over complicating this. It's extremely simple - you give that info away, and you do it happily. Here's an extremely simple example of every single one of your questions:
Financial
- you explore job postings on linked in. You upload your resume to Google drive. You say where you work/what you do on your social media. Your bank statements get emailed. You check your credit through an email reminder.
political
You subscribe to websites with particular political leanings. The content you engage with on social media falls in certain political camps. You interact primarily with people that also have those leanings. You block or avoid content that is not to your politcal liking. Every like and subscribe is your personality and political affiliation.
health
You searched "symptoms of (insert thing here)." You ordered a next brace on Amazon. Your doctor sends your invoice to your Gmail account. Cvs emails you your receipts.
religion
See politics.
browsing info
Google literally sells everything you do. It's their business model. Every time you're signed in with Google it's tracking what you do. Every email you receive. Everything you click on. Every item you purchase. Every review you fill out. Google sells it all, and you'd be amazed how fast they do it. Fun experiment, go buy something - jeans, a shirt, shoes, drums, and guitar, whatever from a new place you haven't shopped before. Go buy it and have the invoice go to your Gmail account. Then get on Instagram...time how long or far you scroll before you see an ad for a similar product. Perhaps even a brand you comparison shopped.
You tell it all these things. Whether you realize you're doing it or not, you tell it everything it wants to know just by using your phone. Google sells it, instametathreads buys it, learns more, and then sells what it learns back to Google and advertisers. Rinse, repeat.
Not trolling at all, genuine question...what is jellyfin?
Ooooh you meant ice cream. I thought you had like some kind of hack for making vanilla flavored ice cubes!
WTF is good vanilla ice? Is it as delicious as it sounds?!
And there it is. They're going to implement a system that will enable them to remove mods without cause, justified by anonymous voting...when they have millions of bots that can vote however Reddit wants them to. People said they'd replace mods and instill puppets and this is quite literally that.
Won't solve thile moderation shit show it will cause but the removing the mods forcibly part is now in the works.
Hate the Catholic Church (I do) or religion as a whole (I also do), but per the article:
Agree or disagree, that all fine, but the exact reason for termination is verbatim in her contract which she signed well ahead of being fired. Is it prudish, archaic, and nonsensical? Yes. But did she sign a contract saying she wouldn't do that and then get fired for doing that thing? Also yes.
