dickover — a modal panel, popover, or curtain presented by a website or app, deliberately obscuring its own content to frustrate the user with an unwanted, unnecessary, mandatory interaction; e.g. asking the user to accept “cookies”, subscribe to a newsletter, install the website’s mobile app, agree to terms of service, or anything else that the user couldn’t give two shits about.
My website has a dickbar, because I need to request consent for using Google Analytics. Am I doing it wrong? I’m honestly not sure how I’d be able to avoid showing the dickbar while still having some form of insight into how visitors are interacting with my website.
