Honestly I've found that it's often the local businesses that shoot themselves in the foot more by this.

I disable cookies for Amazon because I need to login; if a local business wants me to buy from them directly they need to:

1. Not give me a CAPTCHA or cloudflare shit

2. Give me free shipping and a lower price than Amazon minus 5% cashback that I would get on Amazon

3. No registration needed to check out

and I'll buy from the local website. It's really not a high bar, they need to learn to not shoot themselves in the foot.

As for the news websites -- bleh. If they want me to read it, make it easy to read. As in, I click into it, show me the content. If I get a popup, banner, anything that covers up the content, I bounce. I'll get the news from social media anyway. If they'd rather I get it from their news website, they need to learn to not make me bounce.

I'm not opposed to advertising if they want to get revenue from that, but it should not track me, not cover up content, and not load megabytes of JavaScript to do it.
