...If you voluntarily opt into that program (Ghostrank), after reading the straight-forward description.

I don't understand why people find their business model so abhorrent when its entirely opt-in and they don't weasel around what ghostrank does. Surely you must find every service on the internet that you use for free, particularly Google, to be horrible as well?
