Endless browser popups just take a new form nowadays: cookie setting bullshit, websites asking for permissions to shit they don't need, newsletter signup popups

  > ads that relocate all the content This is a personal pet peeve that drives me nuts. Shifting content is irritating and just makes me want to avoid the site. The thing is, ads don’t HAVE to shift content - the site/app designer can account for these kinds of things with various techniques such as giving the ad area a fixed height so that when it loads it’s only filling in that dead space. Ads that obscure content deserve a special place in hell.

    Not all advertising networks are that great at ensuring normalized adverts and many choose the ad size with highest bid vs fitment... it does suck

  And then you close that site or navigate away. That is not a thing with pop-ups.
