  • Then these sites start playing Bill Wurtz’s “How about I do it anyway?”.

    I mean, apart from simply getting your digital fingerprint via other means, quite a lot of them hide the options so that you would have to painstakingly click/tap through a mountain of toggles.

    I have had to do this with several Android games: You can kind of disable most cookie types with one toggle, EXCEPT the one that says “legitimate interest”. Since I wanted to know what exactly they might mean by that, I tapped the tiny question mark circle thing. Guess what: the tooltip just simply said something like ‘data that falls under our partner’s legitimate interest’. And then, if you want to disable it, the only way to do it is tap something like ‘Vendor options’, and then see about 117 vendors, and ~85 of those have a toggle next to their name. You have to click each and every one of those.

    …until the next update, when this window comes up again, waiting for you to give up.

    That’s when my grades started to plummet. I thought calculus would be a breeze since I had always had good grades before that (till the end of secondary school).

    …then came the endless stream of memorising theorems and proofs. Not a single digit in sight, just the entire Greek, Cyrillic and Klingon alphabets.
