This has to be against some kind of law right?
Saw this on Sunday. I think it fits here…
The website doesn’t really care; they have hosting costs so if you’re not paying with money or by accepting ads then to them you’re worse than not visiting at all as you consume resources, so it’s good if you leave?
Sure, but people have memory and if you block people who aren’t even going to contribute to the running costs of the site via the channels they provide, never mind profit, then from the site owners perspective it’s pretty great if you recognise it as a site you don’t want to visit as you likely won’t come back
Don’t worry, once they have your credit card number they’ll track you even more. At best you’ll get a £2.35 cheque from a class action lawsuit in seven years, assuming they ever even get caught.
thank brexiters for that, it’s illegal in eu
What a fantastic website not to visit
I just wanted to read one article, so i have to pay to reject cookies even though I’ll probably never end up on that site again. What a fuckin joke!
Archive.is is your friend
Even if you pay, you’ll still be tracked.
Yeah, they’ll still collect your data and happily sell it as soon as your subscription ends. Also, this subscription would likely only cover first-party tracking. It wouldn’t cover things like a Facebook Like button being embedded in the site, which allows Facebook to track you.
