At this point its getting ridiculous.
Their point 2 even states that even if you do pay them, they will still use cookies to track you and show personalised content
Fuck the Daily Mail.
The Mail has less utility than toilet paper.
or use firefox with ublock origin.
ublock origin blocks most of these trackers.
Browser reader’s mode and Archive Today: hold our beers.
Moral of the story: don’t read the Daily Heil. On top of mining your data like there’s no tomorrow, it’s a racist, homophobic, transphobic, fascist, pseudoscientific crock of absolute shit.
I noticed people are actually starting to realise the Daily Fail is an absolute shitrag, so they’re posting links from The fucking Telegraph instead 😂
Fuck me just get your tweed suit out and start shooting eastern Europeans grandad
It’s infuriating, isn’t it.
Don’t read this disgusting Murdoch rag. The Daily Heil should honestly just skip the cookies and data farming and simply shoot all of its readers.
I don’t think it’s earned by Murdoch, but otherwise agree with the sentiment.
Isn’t it illegal under GDPR? It seems to be the exact same thing Facebook tried to do.
I think they’re all pushing their luck with it, trying to get away with it until any actual legal repercussions happen. I first saw this a while ago with a French newspaper - apparently the majority of newspapers there do it.
I always find the statement “we care about your privacy” to be a bit meaningless when they then say that they’ll share data with 100s of partners.
They didn’t even bother to write that lol.
It’s the fucking Daily Mail, and should be completely avoided anyway.
Yeah, but sometimes you want to debunk it, or use it as a starting point for other research.
Not worth giving them the traffic.
Paid cookies opt out should be illegal
It probably is illegal in the EU, but I have no idea whether it would be illegal in the UK, too.
How do you know they don’t just sell your data anyways?
If they don’t already, they will. The insatiable desire for profit means that even if you paid them $1000 a month for their dogshit rag, they’d sell your data to make $1001 dollars.
Regulations are the only answer and they have to be both enforced and punished heavily enough to not make it worth risking.
