Websites are always asking you to agree to their terms and conditions, which usually means agreeing to let the site collect data from you and sell it. Of course, all that is buried in the small print that may take all day to read, so many websites just plain ask you to agree now or go away. Or sign up for their newsletter. Or agree to various things as a default, if you don't actively opt out. The tricks some websites use to get your agreement can be pretty sneaky. Jonathan Plackett created a game out of those tricks, called Terms & Conditions Apply. Can you get through all 29 pop-up windows without accepting terms and conditions, cookies, or notifications? Yeah, some are easy, while others can be maddening. Try the game and let us know how you did. Difficulty: there are time limits on at least some of them. I did not do as well as I'd hoped, but it was fun trying. -via Metafilter
