Nobody has to do it purposefully for it to still be shitty and revealing.
Or… and I could be wrong here…
It takes money to create the resource they’re providing and are simply asking to be paid for you to access it. At the very least to cut on bot scraping so login to prove you’re not a bot.
Doesn’t have to be shitty at all unless you believe that they shouldn’t be paid at all and should incur the cost of bots.
Its their responsibility to make clear the reason they require it.
Not really?
They don’t have to explain anything to you (though for many of US in this bubble in specific would probably run away from a service that’s so closed like this)… The vast majority of people who run into the Anubis setup will have no fucking clue what any of it means, nor give a shit about it. They just want to get to the content.
Correct. We wont do business if one cannot give an explanation. One can write in the privacy policy that they collect all sorts of private information, but the kicker, for me, is often why.

One doesn’t have to care about the Miranda warning, but its still read off to someone in case they do.
Irrelevant to the point. I was pointing out the value proposition. Certain things exist for a minority of people. I view the 'reason why" as valuable, even if only a minority care about it.
Miranda is required by law. The law creates the responsibility.
There is no requirement and thus no “responsibility” to post a notice of “why” onto a pop-up when you access a site. Just because me and you care, doesn’t make a responsibility for the company/entity running the website to capitulate to what we want.

Something like Anubis does it well by adding a “Why am I seeing this?” section to their JavaScript challenge.
If you require something, such as an account, to view the content. Simply add why.

Miranda is required by law… notifying random people who visit your website isn’t.

It’s directly relevant.

We’re using the definition differently. There is nothing left to discuss.
