"I don't want it."[corporate]

"Stop it. I don't want it. Consent you wanker, do you understand it?"[corporate]
"Since you aren't using the feature, We assume you're an ignorant unaware of it, so let Use smear it a bit more on your face until you swallow it. "[user]
"Sod off. And stop putting this bloody shit on my face."[corporate]

"We've replaced it with something better, bigger, flashier. Trust us. It's better."[user]
