Where now every site pretends to really, really care about your privacy as they force you to agree to give it away just to be able to access their site.

Modern life is rubbish.

Meh.

I had to accept a privacy policy for this site before I was allowed to read this reply. Seriously.

Facebook is responsible for this. Before they screwed up and got caught, everything was fine. Now the whole internet is making people accept "privacy policies" so they know up front they're being screwed, or something.

SO...turns out that whole mess was because I was using a VPN from Europe and as soon as I switched to one from the US of A, all that "you have to accept cookies before even being allowed to view our site!" stuff just went away. The cookies themselves didn't, but I know how to get rid of those easily enough.

Of course now social media is censoring and banning the hell out of anyone who isn't down with the far left so somehow things are even worse than a year ago.
