Yes, but paid content is not the norm and the reason for that is that blatant advertising and shoving malaware down people’s throats on grandma’s recipe website is not only legal, it’s a predictable business model.

Yeah, that’s fine, but at some point we need to start talking about alternative methods of monetization for websites. On the one hand, compiling a list of recipies on a website and maintaining that website is not easy or cheap and the owners should be able to make money out of it. On the other hand, the user should be able to pay for this comfortably and have a nice experience on the website.
This ad model doesn’t serve any of the two, business or consumer.
Not really. They get money when you click on them. They don’t get anything for displaying it. That’s the whole point of having targeted ads, it increases the chance of interacting with them.
That was the answer I got years back when I complained to support about this. There might be other reasons too, of course
As far as I remember, it is implemented like that because they have to allow Bluetooth mouse or keyboard to bring the machine out of sleep. It malfunctions sometimes when you connect non-apple things to it.
No, it’s a known Mac OS issue. They consider it a feature and suggest disabling Bluetooth or shutting down the machine entirely as workarounds.
Do you always have to manually reconnect your Sony headphones to your Mac? If so, that’s another annoying bug/feature of their Bluetooth implementation where it doesn’t automatically connect to some devices for some silly reason. I had this issue with a Bluetooth mouse which was very annoying.
Is it a scam? How does it work?
