       I experience LOTS of people here posting links to news/science/culture articles.  Nine out of ten of these open two pop-ups at the same time as the page that is linked to. Usually demanding acceptance of cookies and tracking shite etc etc. The usual.No.I close those straight away.If you're linking to a site with all that shit; then what you're linking to ISN'T GOING TO BE READ.There is less and less, on a daily basis, online that is ACTUALLY accessible.That is, without conditions.

       @Penguinflight Can depend on what browser/extensions you are using. Some of my links probably have cookie pop-ups and stuff, but duckduckgo browser and firefox with the right settings or extensions hide them, so I don't see them. Sorry if I am inflicting pop-ups on you.

       @drgeraint Can't say I've noticed, but then you've been busy elsewhere of late.  I use Crap Cleaner's browser (based on Chrome) which allegedly catches all this shit.But I still seem to see nothing but shite on every commercial news/magazine page there is.
