Well, your browser info and metadata have now been sold to third parties for a few pennies, so I'd say mission successful for site owner.

Are people actually still this naive? Reading HN users makes me feel like I'm trapped in the 80s where the internet was a magical mystery that nobody really understood. It's about 40 years too late to just assume the average trash website is actually a meaningful statement about something, or a viable product of some sort.

99.9999999% are just junk. The big ones, you already know about.
