Dear Automattic Inc., dear whomever you might be bought by in the future.
Making it as hard as possible to object to the use of personal data of users by partners and other third parties is not only an inhumane move but actually illegal – privacy is a human right and needs support instead of hidden doorways, hard to track down, that somehow gives you the idea that a user ever consented to anything. What you are committing by expecting to be able to perfectly manage to find every single checkbox to uncheck and, and by denying your users a “reject all” button or a similar opt-out-option, expecting them to go through an unreasonably amount of work each time you update something on tumblr, is called “Fraud”.
I hereby object to tumblr (and the company owning tumblr), and its partners, saving any of my personal or private data/information for storage, advertisement, marketing research or any other reason other than to keep up the bare minimum functionality of the website and the usability of my account.
I do NOT give you consent – I opt out of ALL options I could possibly opt out of, and you resetting my settings, bringing out new updates or doing slight changes to the privacy settings will NOT – at no given point – give you the right to assume that I changed my mind. You do not have the right to assume that you have my consent for anything.
