Uses SAP Hybris E-Commerce Cloud in the background. It collects your info and whatever your mouse hovers over or clicks to build a customer profile to send you more ads to make you buy more stuff.
Don’t forget:
>Search for item you want
>Cool, exact result shows up
>Click result
>“Oh, we don’t have this. But here’s 10 similar things you can buy instead.”>the 10 similar items have nothing to do with what you searched
And they’re all “marketplace” items so the store won’t guarantee quality and the return policy doesn’t apply. Plus shipping is $200 and three months when the store your trying to buy from is down the road.
Also:
>Click “add to cart”
>Sign in window pops up
>No option to skip sign inI even had a site yesterday that popped up the log in window when I tried to search! It wouldn’t let me see the search results without signing into an account.
God damn I feel like the last web developer that doesn’t load up 15 GB of JavaScript on every fucking page. What is wrong with my fellow developers??
Cause they’re not developers, they’re website maintainers and they just click all the “increase customer engagement options” on the Shopify premium web builder pro.
Thank you for your service
Now it’s ‘sign in to view reviews.’ Fuck offfffffffffffff
Shopee won’t even let you fucking search without logging in, sometimes they won’t even load the landing page and just throw you at the login screen.
After years of not buying anything online I had to get a very specific replacement part that is ~impossible to source locally. So naturally I headed to AliExpress, and holy shit it’s even worse than what’s in the meme. I eventually managed to order what I needed but it took half an hour of wading through mazes of ads and “bundled deals” and non-working payment options.
> search shows pages and pages of irrelevant items
> finally find item and order it
> algorithm starts showing nothing but the item for lower prices than I paid
> email forever flooded with, “We noticed you’re looking for Item”Can’t even find certain items on Amazon. Father in law sent me a picture of a tractor oil filter to order for him. Literally could not pull it up when logged in. Had to find it with google in a private tab, then share the item to myself.
2005 did have a lot of pop-ups and malware, but I’d still go back.
PUNCH BIN LADEN AND WIN A NEW TV!!
🗣️Congratulations - you won!

REAL or FAKE - Has science gone too far?
(I think a couple of these are a bit later than 2005, but still.)
Monitor did nothing wrong
It was probably an LG
Ublock Origin solves every single one of these issues.
(Also, why would anyone ever hit anything other than “Reject All”?)
It doesn’t solve the jittery JS all over the place while the page loads. I reeeeeally hate it.
Because that accepts “Legitimate Interests” by default, and those are just more of the same trackers, just disguised as a separate section
I fucking hate the legitimate interest exemption shit, I have a legitimate interest in not accepting any fucking tracking.
What, no, they don’t allow “legitimate exceptions”, Gorhill literally created it because ABP was the one doing that.
Plus, you just can add more blocklists that override any “allowlist” (that obviously doesn’t exist).
I think you’re misreading my comment. I was answering the question about clicking anything other than “reject all”
