Of course they did. You can collect more data by forcing the user to create an account and circumvent most ad blocks in an app though! What incentive do they have to making a functioning site?!

Use a VPN like Mullvad that has an ad block built in. It doesn't allow ads to load in any apps, it's really nice. I'm sure they can still collect all kinds of data but at least the ads are taken care of.

Yea that’s what I do. Majority of people though are not doing that and they know it.
