      <![CDATA[@2 and @3 the difference is Chad has been making money off of you storing your shit in his storage unit, possibly by having vendors pay him so they can set up right outside his storage unit and hawk goods to you. Chad has been whoring you out to these vendors for years (if you're not paying for the product you are the product), but now Chad wants to step it up and whore out your stuff too. Some people are willing to let themselves be whored out but not their stuff. The internet has given people funny values about that sort of thing.

      <![CDATA[Some of my friends have started posting dubious messages on my wall. I can believe that my friend likes VW Beetles, since she owns one, but I find it unlikely that she subsequently is liking a different VW model every day, complete with clickable link to a dealer.

      <![CDATA[Today's XKCD is mandatory for commentary on Instagram.  Not to be a troll (commenting anonymously and all), but what did people expect from a free service that has all your stuff?  That they'd lose money forever?<br>
<br>
Now if your point is that they went about it in a somewhat shady way, I won't disagree, but the cynical me wants to snark: you expected better from a corporation?
