Going through HN top list today on a machine with no ad blocker I see the same in pretty much all US sites: Cookie popup that is clearly illegal, lots of ads, cookies and trackers (189 on one site), then some JavaScript pop-up about whatever (newsletter mostly) when moving the mouse outside the frame. It is not any better. At most more polished but likely we are just used to it. Good thing I have adblockers in both my normal machines browser and on the firewall.
