So now I have to PAY you to NOT store files on my device that I don't want? - eviltoast

Was trying to read a news story and… What fresh shitfuckery is this? Why do I now have to pay money to a company just for the privilege of not being spied upon and not getting your cookies that I don’t want or need? How is this even legal?

RE: “Why are you even reading that shitrag?” – I clicked on a link someone posted in another sublemmit, didn’t realise it was the Sun till after. I do not read the Sun on the regular, chill. My point stands regardless that this is extremely shitty and should probably not be allowed.

    Sadly it is not, as you need to pay to access content by money or pay by viewing ads.

    Facebook uses the same model.

    If you don’t want the “premium content” by paying with way 1 or way 2, you can’t use the site.

    This will end up being a final nail in the coffin for these sites, I wish.
