It occurs to me that maybe user behavior metrics are to blame, because our default response to these stupid intrusions (click any button to make it go away) appears as "engagement" to the devs/markting people: "oh look, people are clicking our popup buttons!" so then they are encouraged to add more of them. "Look how much engagement we're driving!"
