Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

What a weird hill to die on.
No one is whining about being put on an email list at their own request. Which you obviously know. People were making the point that newsletters aren't magically immune to data tracking.
You can bet your ass the MailChimp is sharing a fuckton of data with advertising partners in order to maximize sales to you. It's not supposed to be controversial. I first just assumed this was something you hadn't thought about. Sadly you seem hostile to information you hadn't considered.
Moron opts for ignorance, convinced it's enlightenment
What a great analogy. You just be really proud of your vast knowledge which includes: there exist tech companies who could easily sell your data but suddenly decided not to.
