Why are there so many humans?

Arghh it's that site with the "Yes I love humans" / "No I'm not human" popup obscuring the screen after a few seconds again. It's kind of cute, but my natural response to that is back button. I don't know what it's trying to say. Can't be just me it puts off like that. What a shame, it seemed like a fascinating article.

Lead web dev: <examining logs> "We need to hijack the back button."

My favorite is when they just dump the URL to the history endlessly so you can never go far enough back. I see this on a surprising number of otherwise reputable sites, and then I immediately leave the site and set my browser to blacklist it.

Hahaha so funny, thanks for that. Yeah, I guess that's how that 'evolved'.

Just disable Javascript. It makes almost all content-based sites so much better and easier to read.

Also blank pages are good for your imagination.

What was up with that confirm shaming? Weirdest prompt ever.
