2nd time today now I'm on a different connection to earlier. Can you sort it out please? The only choice I'd like is none and as that isn't there I couldn't care less what the adverts are for. I know they aren’t the adverts you are talking about, but I do like the links at the bottom of the page with photos of women with unfeasibly large yet upright breasts, and captions such as “17 photos that broke the internet”. A (ahem) friend of mine who has clicked on them tells me that there’s never a photo of the lady that’s drawn you - sorry; drawn him - in.

Just tried it on my phone for the sake of it and it came up again. Every time it has come up I have clicked "show purposes", made sure everything is set to "off" and the pressed "save and exit". It's either not working i.e. saving, or it wants me to turn something on, that I don't want to turn on. As I said, I don't care what the adverts are (as I'm sure no one else does either) so can't you just get rid of it altogether?

I have been on other sites that have exactly the same format as this one, on this issue. The same window comes up, in the same colours and format, so I conclude that the option window that comes up is a third party option set, that is not only for the Hol. It must be a generic window. I have also found that on other sites when you go into it and try and reject all the advertisers that want your info, it will only let you do it if you go into all the advertisers and stop them individually. There is a reject all option but this doesn't work. This can mean you have to reject more than 200 trackers manually in order to reject and this will happen each time you visit the site. They are making it annoying solely for the purpose of you hoping that you'll get fed up and allow them to have all your private browsing info or at least make you enable the "accept cookies" option in your browser The problem is that advertisers and their analytic partners are being asked to stop doing what makes them money. They don't want you to have privacy and the law change is compelling them to provide it. They are going to use every loophole/trick in order to negate the loss of this information. It will only really change if they are named and shamed. So get on to the site, which ever one it is and complain. That's if you care about it and I know that many don't.

Just had it yet again, despite not getting it earlier today. So it forgets the setting 24 hours after telling it to save it.

Several SCAMMING sites advertise on this website - which I don't think is great for fellow fans. Let me say, you will not get an iPhone for a quid. What you will get is hundreds taken out of your bank account or credit card.
