I got a video that started playing which only had an arrow to expand but no x to close. It kept following while scrolling.

Not sure why my ad blocker didn't block it.

Edit: after staying on the page for about a minute it just auto showed up

Gadget website showing video playing

nothing on firefox with ublock origin here.

[–] fluckx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It takes a (short while to show ). I also have uBlock origin in my phone ( with fennec ) and it did show for me for some reason

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (4 children)

huh, not showing up on mine. same setup: fennec with ublock origin.

i do have more blocklists than default selected in the settings though. the annoyances and cookie banner ones are specially good.

Ah, i have it set to block 3rd party frames (anywhere, since almost only ad stuff uses this) and 3rd-party scripts (on mobile, breaks some things), probably that's why.

funny enough my thesis involves orwellian spying, palantir type of shit

Was this an attack or just some artistic BS? The article is unclear. Mostly because the article wasn't written by a person.

[–] Schlemmy@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

I'll gladly introduce you to Massive Attack because it seems you never heard of these Trip Hop legends from Bristol.
