So this means the experience of extracting any useful information from any website I click on from a google results page is going to keep getting worse.
We already have popups to log in, popups to sign up for newsletters, popups to take surveys, popups to install the app instead of viewing the website, full-screen ads, popups to enable notifications, popups for a site to access my location, popups about enabling cookies, and popups telling me to stop blocking popups. Every site now thinks just because I'm clicking on it from a search result page means I want to engage in some semipermanent relationship with them, before I even get a chance to view the site. Now we just add one more thing to the pile of things every website under the sun will try to get me to do just because I clicked one link.
Remember when web pages were just documents you could view?
Honestly? Fuck the web.
