@robpike News (and other) sites whose cookie consent form fails to display with adblockers on, leaving the site completely disabled. Needing to disable adblockers to reject cookies kind of defeats the purpose… @robpike there is a very short list of news sites I will log into and it corresponds 1:1 with ones I will pay a subscription to read. Not for viewing random articles. @robpike I’ve stopped subscriptions due to that in the past. I’m sure I can’t be the only one. @robpike sf chronicle somehow requires me to log in, then when I click login, it remembers that I'm still logged in and doesn't ask for a password. |
@robpike news.bbc.co.uk has started asking me to log in for some reason. Why would I bother ? Argh.
