    They’re self tours. They’re forcing you to pay a pittance with a identifiable credit card (not a gift card) which gives them your billing address The name associated with your bank account and with a quick joint through Nexus you’re approximate credit score and amount of money you make.

    At 50 cents a tour nobody’s making any money off of it they’re not even making enough money to pay for the internet connected lock they put on the door

      50/c/tour using highly cacheable data is easily profitable. but profitability is a completely unrelated point. as you touched on briefly.

      Which takes me back to: ‘this is just all kinds of fucked up’
