Fake news–they would never give you a $10 discount for selling your personal information. That’s like taking food right out of those poor shareholders’ mouths!
My formerly-favorite local pizza place got bought by a chain who put up 10+ TVs that show nothing but ads for the chain and occasionally portions of their menu (which is of course useless as a menu since it’s not visible most of the time). They also replaced the original simple but easy-to-use website with a gaudy infinite-scrolling pile of shit that makes you click through a bunch of “suggestions” just to order and pay for one fucking pizza.
Their pizza is still really good (for now, anyway) but they’ve now added a $2 “technology fee” to every order. Fuck corporate America so fucking hard.
Let me do it for you:

It’s not a discount, it’s a surcharge
A number in parentheses means it is negative.
Huh, first time I’ve heard of it
I assumed it was a $10 service fee to pay for the infrastructure and staff who work hard to sell our personal information.
