So ads for their mail list and more data to be sold later. Size doesn't matter when it comes to ads and nefarious content.
It's just a little pop up...
Or, just a small site trying to make good content and engage users in a way that means they’ll return.
“BuT If I lIkE tHE CoNteNt I’lL CoMe BaCk AnYWay”, and some people would prefer a mailing list. There’s nothing inherently evil about a mailing list pop up…
You can make and propose a mailing list without a pop up…
So you want more spam ads in your email that is already overloaded with spam. No thanks, no social media site needs to send me email.
I just clicked no, wasn’t that difficult tbh…
