- gfxgirl 6y agoI just visited NYT's sit. It immediately set 20 cookies before asking for consent. It also loaded stuff from google.com sites. The options that appeared are (a) Accept (b) Manage Trackers Manage trackers leads to this page https://www.nytimes.com/subscription/privacy-policy#/cookie https://www.nytimes.com/subscription/privacy-policy#/cookie Which seems to list lots of 3rd parties that will track me if I view the site. I'm told I have to go to their sites and opt out.
