Y'know, I'm a native english speaker, but well over half the people I've talked to in this industry are not.

I don't find there's much reason to correct their mistakes or be condescending in any way. After all, they learned my language so we could do business together. I'm the uneducated one, really. I only speak one language.

I do not feel I am being condescending in any way. I am well aware that there are many here that did not learn English as their first language.

I also openly admit to being just a stupid American that knows only one language. I envy those that speak multiple languages.

However, if I was writing marketing material in a language other than English and I had it wrong then I hope that someone would take the time to correct me on it.

I have not labeled anybody. I have not called out anyone personally. I have not published where I saw the misuse. I have merely pointed it out so that those that may be making the error can correct it.

i heard it many times - even from native english speakers.

they use it usually when they want to tell you that they have different sorts of traffic

i.e. mobile, desktop, tablet or clicktraffic, pop, skimmed, blindlick or redirect traffic.
