Sorry for the delay. I have a bad habit of never going back to look at pieces I've written. First off, thanks for reading it. Secondly, yes, that is what I was trying to say -- only you said it more succinctly and much more clearly. :)

Authenticity is something we should share, reveal, or present in our time and on our own terms, right? Especially if it's earned or justified. Massive companies, however, are unfeeling machines, so ANY attempt to leverage human sincerity seems inherently insincere to me.

Again, you said it way faster.
