How is that not extortion?
Because you aren't compelled to use their site.
It's the Sun. No one should use their site. They're doing you a favour by showing you they're assholes the second you land on their site.
True, but shouldn't I be able to use it if I want to without having to choose between paying money or being spied on?
The only other option I can see would be ads -- but I'm betting you'd just use an ad-blocker.
Well, the fact that when there are ads, there's always like 20 of them is another issue... But yeah, I don't even care about ads but as I see it I should have a right to privacy without having to pay for it.
You don't have to pay for privacy. You still have that right.
What you don't have is the right to use that particular website without either paying for it, or allowing cookies.
You aren't a victim of anything here.
You are part of the problem here
How so?
Imagine, if you will, a world where things weren't shitty for the sake of being shitty.
Where perhaps, good things could just be good.
Wow, it sounds awesome!
Anyways:
What, specifically, is "the problem here", and how am I part of it?
