I love that you think that Oath is a privacy settings service and not an enormous media company. These dark patterns are hurting their brand.

- LeonM 7y agoYou're right. So many times I had a bad privacy consent experience while seeing their logo under it. Now I automatically associate Oath with that bad experience. I guess that's why I assumed Oath to be some privacy settings service similar to Trustarc.
- dkersten 7y agoI refuse to use any Oath sites to the point where I block many of them in my hosts file now. Sadly means I can’t read this article. I think I’ll live.
- bchanudet 7y agoI feel the same and now avoid techcrunch like the plague. Fortunately Hackaday published a piece on this subject too, if you still have the interest. https://hackaday.com/2019/06/07/maker-media-ceases-operations/ https://hackaday.com/2019/06/07/maker-media-ceases-operation...
