[Case 219: You can opt out of targeted advertising](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/219) means there is a target advertising to opt out of. So that means that when we use Case 219 we must always also use [Case 336: Your personal data may be used for marketing purposes](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/336)?

The first is positive with weight 25, the latter negative with weight 50. So offering an opt out alternative just reduces the net sum of negative points, right?

If a point linked to [Case 219: You can opt out of targeted advertising](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/219) is created, then I’d say there should exist a point linked to [https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/216](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/216) or [https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/220](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/220).

Case 336 opt out would be (at least partially) [https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/223](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/223)

Sure, that relation seems true for me too. Offering an opt out reduces the negative view of the point without removing it completely as it isn’t by default.
