I think most people don't see the basic trade of "you charge me less but get my data & my attention" to be a bad deal, particularly when the upside is a large TV which was a _huge_ status symbol (for better or worse) not even 15 years ago.

On the other hand Texas seems to have a problem with it. But say you're right. Does "not a bad deal" make people enthusiastic about it?

Why go out there and evangelize about a half-assed rewards card that comes with privacy leaks? That's what I'm asking.
