there was a time when Twitter, Facebook, IG and the like followed sort of a standard as to what a video view was (say min 2s 50% visible). YouTube, being a video-first platform, was a lot more strict (not public but word of mouth said 30s min).
Along came Tiktok and went like lol no a view equals an impression.
And although advertisers quickly priced this discrepancy in, it meant that headlines would be permanently skewed in favor of platforms with sketchy public view counts.

If you don't mind another data point, I read the article, searched for GarageBand in the Launchpad, dragged it to the trash and uninstalled it. No admin password required.
