I don't use Google Analytics, and Carbon's script is restricted by my CSP to showing the display ad. They also have a reasonable privacy policy where they're not tracking users or generating libraries of behavioural data, as

The El Injerto that won is a particularly excellent crop. I didn't know Stumptown got a parcel, but I've had the Phil & Sebastian roast of the same crop, and it's delightful, particularly in an AeroPress. You should give it a try.

I am not a lawyer (contact one!), but your choices will be to either settle ($$$) or fight it ($$$$). A quick Google search tells me that these guys have sued quite a few people over this, and you might be able to put together some sort of
