    Not a conspiracy theory, in over 70% of cases it's truth.

    Depends on what you're recycling.

    Glass/aluminum/paper? YES

    Plastics? Very debatable, and possibly worthless.

    I gotta say, I wouldn't put a false flag operation past Trump at all. His own "assassination attempt" is fishy as hell.

    Man I hate to revive this thread but I had a moment last night that created a conspiracy theory. I know its not as big as some of the others but its bugging me. Grammarly manipulates your documents when they are over a certain length by creating errors. Then you need to fix them, validating your need for the product. Perhaps with the idea that the mistakes will make you more inclined to get the pro version and pay through the nose because of all the mistakes you think you are making.

    I have a document I work on at my work. I have written a lot of information in the web based document. When I was on the document at work, without Grammarly, all of the errors were fixed and I had proof read it multiple times. I access it on a browser that has Grammarly installed and poof, mistakes galore. Mistakes that I know where not there before, since I had just read it an hour earlier. I noticed one mistake that happened multiped times, I had the first two letters of a longer word stacked on the front or end of words causing the misspelling error to pop up. Even more obvious was when an error popped up in the same sentence I was now editing, while I was editing it.

    Man I am almost to the point where I no longer trust 3rd party anything on the internet.

    You can trust 3rd party anything -- trust it to, either awkwardly or cleverly, attempt to maximize profit. That's it.

    I should have clarified, my home computer has Grammarly installed on it while my work computer does not. Google Chrome at home and work. One of my kids installed it for their homework and its been a beast to try and uninstall. I have done a little digging and a few people have brought up seeing the same thing. Especially on documents over 10k words.
