Great website collecting emails with no Terms of Service (https://www.opentermsarchive.org/en/terms-of-service) and an almost empty privacy policy (https://www.opentermsarchive.org/en/privacy-policy)

The GitHub says you can use RSS. Perhaps open an issue about the email collection and privacy policy concerns.

Why not opt-in via cookies?

That way the site can hide the cookie banner for you and continue to show it for new visitors (which have no cookies set)

But it should still be not-tracking until you agree (i.e. if you have no cookies set).

> Great website collecting emails with no Terms of Service
That is quite ironic.
From the website: "Large digital companies today occupy a central position which ... However, they communicate in an insufficiently clear, readable and continuous manner on these ToS"
It's not just large digital companies that need a decent ToS and privacy policy. They are collecting emails and could be spamming everyone with junk mail, selling them along with the companies people are interested in. Probably not but they don't say so.
