Darn, beat me to it today, can I post this tomorrow?

On a more relevant note:

We are aware of these reports and have paused this notification while we investigate and take appropriate action to address this unintended behavior

What is utter bullshit, Alex?

unintended behavior

Who do they expect to believe this shit?

Like "oops we accidentally injected ads into your browser"?

Is the explanation that this is unintended actually better than owning up to it? So some rogue employee can code this up, pass it through localization teams and then on to customers' computers without any oversight? I'm somehow not calmed by that.
