No we didn't. We learned they were required to offer an 'ad tracking free' experience and that they priced it at $15/month. As that experience only exists as a result of a law suit - we have no idea what a user is worth.

Because they were limited by what they could charge to 'sounds reasonable' and 'unlikely to cause further lawsuits'
