- CaptSpify 11y agoInteresting. I didn't see anything like that. Maybe noscript = win?
- egeozcan 11y agoIf you're blocking their cookies, or blocking scripts (because they increment read articles count with js for some reason) then you don't feel a thing indeed. Also, it doesn't seem to detect DNS based blocking.
- DrScump 11y agoSame here. One fun quote, though: "the tiny band of marauders can wipe out a colony of 30,000 bees in a few hours, a glut of beheadings that makes the French Revolution look like Dance Dance Revolution."

- froh42 11y agoWhy would anbody pay $1/week for reading that article we were click-baited into? By the way, what's the amount Wired would make on ads if I read that article? A few cents? That's probably what I'd pay given a good micropayment system for reading that single article. I'm not interested in a subscription (and even less in my personal data being in their database along with that subscription).
