I was just recommended this Wired article, "Please let the Internet die":

https://www.wired.com/story/let-the-internet-die/

...but I have not read it. First I get the malicious-compliance "we see your do-not-track setting" popover that must be dismissed. Then there was another one full of "privacy choices". I stopped there; I think that Wired has already made its point quite nicely.

@corbet: I've blocked all JavaScript on wired.com (via uMatrix) and it works rather nicely despite having the DNT flag set via EFF Privacy Badger, too. 😇

@corbet Hmm. There's no article there, it just attempts to force you into signing up.

People need to start sharing relevant text, not links.

@xtaran I mean, Reader Mode works too, but that's not what OP was getting at ;-)
