I agree. I think it's one of those things that people complain about because other people complain about. You have to click a button. Wow. What an ordeal. The title of this thread used the term "nightmare". I would be thankful that my life is so wonderful that clicking a button is considered a "nightmare". It's transparent and if you don't like it, don't go to that site.


It's a nightmare because it is everywhere you turn, not because of the difficulty in dismissing the banner (although not all banners are made equally). But I'm pretty sure you're smart enough to realize you're intentionally making a strawman argument. It's the purpose of the argument I'm not sure.


It's on websites, not everywhere I turn. And it's very very very simple to deal with. At least it is for me.


ugh. of course I didn't mean at your local 7-11 or grocery market and quite clearly meant everywhere you turn online. pedantry is so boring
