Yeah but shit like this makes me not want to read the article at all. I just skim it until I find what the thing is.
Just like some annoying marketing campaigns with ads that you have no fucking idea what they are about (like ".it's coming", "soon" and shit like that) and only find out like a month later when they make a new campaign actually telling you that. I will never engage with that company or buy the product just because I hate ads like that.
I never click on clickbait. I refuse to support anyone who engages in that practice.
Skimming the article is the same as reading it in full - they just want to place their cookies, and clicking the link is enough to do that if you don't go through all the settings including turning off all the "legitimate interest" options - and that is often a pain to do.
I have an extension that automatically does cookies for me
So do I, but it doesn't turn off the legitimate interest on a lot of sites. I suspect that the cookie corps are working hard to circumvent it.
Consentomatic? I love that extension.
The one I use is called "I don't give a fuck about cookies".
