...and the website should have all that information, right?

Sure, one option provides it immediately the other requires you to perform additional steps.

Guess which one's going to be more popular amongst the general public? You're not this obtuse are you?

Do you know how many scams happen because it's ridiculously easy for anyone to edit the "knowledge" panel? I'd rather click an extra button and get the real number from the business' own website than trust whatever is on Google.

"You're not this obtuse are you?" -- uncalled for, but, I guess you are who you are. So, you do you, buddy.

This is beyond stupid. The panel gives basic information, if you're making anything beyond a decision to follow up based on that you deserve whatever you get. I also know how easy it is to manipulate the website. Information is malleable, it seems your brain is not.

Are you completely incapable of communicating without resorting to personal attacks?

[–] S_204@lemm.ee -2 points 9 months ago

I am. In this case though the stupidity presented warrants being noted. stupid ass bitches crying over being called stupid ass bitches isn't anything new.
