It’s more a Google account thing afaik. You get the same prompt in Firefox if you use Gmail

I agree it’s absolutely stupid, nothing I said was in support of it, I was just pointing out it wasn’t difficult to get around

It's just such a common misconception that there was no ads in the 'old Internet', that's all I was pointing out. There seems to be a nostalgic false memory that Internet back then didn't have ads which is hilarious if you were there to see what it was like

What are you talking about, ads were far worse back in the 90s /2000. Were you even using the Internet back then? Couldn't block them and things like infinite pop ups were rampant, if you didn't have a firewall setup and anti virus, your entire Windows 98 setup could be wrecked in minutes just being online
