At first I thought it was a picture and didn't get it until I realized it was a site and I could click on things.
It is disturbingly accurate. I have a script blocker so there's the added step of trying to figure out the bare minimum scripts required to run the site.
Nowadays, when I see news about some new law that's gonna ruin the web I just have a sad chuckle. That ship has sailed. And they didn't even need shitty laws to do it.
Good CaptainObvious.
The site has been made on purpose to illustrate these behaviors, there's no function/cookies/logic code behind.
Switching browser doesn't change anything as it is fake.
By not visiting a shitty websites and cliché shit like these. It's not that hard. And it feel much better than acting like old man shouting at the sky on the internet.

Only thing they missed was a popup asking me to please not leave if I move my mouse near the top edge of the tab.

My rule is the first bullshit to popup I flip to reader mode. If it doesn’t display in reader mode, it’s wasting my time, time to close.
