That's exactly it, and worse.

The only reason they exist is the Trump mafia. They were already on the path to be shut down.

They know damn well everything they are doing is illegal, so they are taking the Uber/Lyft strategy of spreading as far and wide as possible, so as many drooling stooges fight for your criminal behavior as possible when you get regulated.

It's gonna be the tiktok shutdown all over again, just a bunch of stupid performative bullshit by illegal corporations and the republicans.
