> The state of news sites is well known to everyone on HN. It's not nice to have this same comment pop up every time instead of discussing the article.
This is a technology website, I find UX discussion pretty relevant since all these news sites have horrible UX, and it should be pointed out each time they fail at basic UX. They don't need 50 nag screens. They could put most of them on the side or the top of their page, including GDPR notices. The reason why they use these invasive and annoying nag screens is that browsers ended up blocking all these annoying window based pop ups at first place.
Online news media just can't learn their lesson.
