A lot of websites actively interfere the reader from accessing them by pestering them with their "apps" these days. I don't know where this fascination with getting everyone to download your app comes from.

I'm kinda surprised the author is able to put together why the ad experience is bad, even directly calling out the data ining of the sites, but completely misses that apps are even better at mining your data
