I understand this is instead of the 2% cash back that Apple Card pays on full payments.

I assume the merchant fees are the same either way.

They could show a shipping rate to their typical target market (eg. “$5 shipping to continental US + tax”) or use a IP based address estimation.

I have an above average number of hands: 2 (like most people)

Or in other words, it’s not contradicting if you’re in a 70% group of people who said some answer.

I'm a happy customer for their reasonable prices. If the prices require banning extreme cost outliers like crypto mining I'm okay with that.

Maybe the key would be to keep the artificial diamond ring at a similar price point. Larger, designer brand, more manual labor details, I don’t know. Not saving money, but get a superior product.

I don't think Google is quite as neutral here. Google suggests adding "cheater" to the search of the victim's names and ranks those websites.

What if the manual of the hammer included a section "try hitting someone with it".

Now, Google's recommendation clearly came from seeing those words appear together, but to me Google is somewhere between completely neutral like grep, a hammer, or a car and fully editorialized like a blog or newspaper.

Seems odd they didn't acquire voltswagen.de and voltswagen.com though a subsidiary company.
