As a comment on the site, I accidentally scrolled "past" the end of the story (e.g. hit some arbitrary marker whilst still reading and scrolling) and was presented by a full screen popup advert saying "Since you enjoyed reading this....".
That's a new one on me, and super annoying.

- misnome 11y agoI tried a global script killer a few years ago and it made the web unusable, with having to "turn on" scripts on almost every site I used in order to do the most basic things. It's also worth mentioning that I have both Ghostery and Adblock installed, and running, and this still came up.
