Didn’t anti-virus, spyware and/or malware apps flag Epic as malicious when it first launched?

I didn’t read the article. I will admit this. I am only reacting to the headline.

This type of advertising isn’t new. There is that famous (although the claims from the father have been questioned) New York Times article written by Charles Duhigg in 2012. A father of a teenage girl in Minnesota got upset for receiving coupons from Target for infant care related products. As the story goes, he later learned his daughter was in fact pregnant. It turns out Target was using some predictive algorithm to identify would-be mothers and straight up sending them coupons for infant care products. It seems ever since this article was published that they stopped doing this in such a direct manner. Again, there have people who questioned the validity of the claims for this specific story, but Target did confirm they were doing this.

Has anyone looked up morality in the dictionary and compared it to the Torah?

I guess wherever there is support of the Israeli state, there is a Nazi behind that.
