A freebie that comes with most Apple products which usually serves no purpose. You usually get two of them on a single vertical sheet and come in a variety of sizes and colors.
I can't count how many sheets of Apple stickers I have over the nearly forty years I started buying Apple products starting with the original Macintosh.

Get the Apple stickers mug.The blue thing that every Mario Kart player fears the most. Destroying friendships since late 1996. It's essentially a way to bring the leader of the race to last, ruining their day.
You know, that moment where you spend the whole race in first, only to get hit by a spiny shell several hundred meters before the finish line? I sure do, and I wish they never existed in the first place.

Get the spiny shell mug.Bullcrap system that Audible Magic developed for YouTube to use on its site. The goal of Content ID is to prevent piracy. Instead, it limits the user by automatically treating them as a criminal, even when said copyrighted material is being used under fair use.
The extent of Content ID can do is up to the copyright holder. Viacom was one of the first companies to use Content ID after they sued YouTube for mass piracy. One of the methods is blocking reuploads of their material, which is usually done by major film studios and music labels. Other times, it's used to leech money off a YouTuber. One of the biggest reasons why it's hated is preventing users from monetizing videos. The average wait time to remove a Content ID claim can range from within 24 hours to an upward 90 days, with the longest being in the appeal and counter-notification processes.

Nearly 10,000 companies use Content ID. A majority of them are on behalf of industry giants who know nothing about Fair Use.
