did they change their name to Slice recently to combat this? I didn't see unrollme but saw something called Slice instead... plot thickens?

Do you think that's enough? Could they still be tracking w/cookies or ???

Cookies can easily be deleted, and this step doesn't stop them from having what they already have, but it prevents future exploitation.

Thanks John. Feels so gross that they were doing this. I've referred so many good people to them.

I'm not gonna take credit here, this post started by a genius. Thanks is due to Amit. Good on you, Amit.

Well, thank you both! Unbelievable how many emails I thought I unsubscribed to. Spent a lot of time lately unsubscribing & scrubbing inbox.
