Dude it's a terms of service update, it's not like watching ads on a subscription you already pay for.

I know, I read it, and those words mean absolutely nothing. You and I will never be affected by it. It's like a random passerby waving sage at you and telling you they've disturbed your aura.

I promise you practically every TOS you've ever blindly clicked through said something very similar.
