The lede is about the Washington post, but the whole thing is rotten. Surveillance-based pricing.
Quoting
Washington Post notifies subscribers their rates are set to increase, explaining the price rise“was set by an algorithm using your personal data.” https://washingtonian.com/2026/03/12/the-washington-post-is-using-reader-data-to-set-subscription-prices-how-does-that-work/

Today, I am going to be removing a favorite user feature: picking your own font for the Xogot text editor and La Terminal as now you need Apple's approval to use third party fonts installed in the system.
