Panic closed the tab when a giant form popup appeared asking for my email. Hate to add noise to the discussion, but I hope the author sees this and understands the market doesn't want this and reduces readership.
- corebit 7y agoSame. I wish HN had a filter I could set up to hide entries form domains that do this. Won't catch one offs like this but I can add it along with NYT and other paywalls so I don't waste my time.
