I hope they're careful with that. Modals could contain legally required waivers such as for upcoming GDPR etc. Edit: what endymi0n said in another subthread

- zaarn 9y agoIf they kill legal waivers then I would say that is up to the website operator to fix, especially when it's being widely deployed by a major browser vendor.
- Cthulhu_ 9y agoI think those legally required waivers shouldn't be displayed as a modal but as a landing page of sorts - a modal implies that underneath, the page itself, including ads and trackers etc are already loaded. A proper cookie warning thing should not be able to set any cookies or whatsoever before the user has agreed to it. Of course, a properly designed website will grant access to its content regardless of the user accepting or rejecting the cookie thing. Second, if a user installs a plugin that automatically hides or rejects cookie warnings / gdpr stuff, that's their own fault then.
