Hot Take:

Imagine being so eager to exploit vulnerabilities that you're practically waiting with bated breath for patches to drop. Magnet Goblin, the cyber equivalent of 'early birds catch the worm,' only they're not after worms—they're after your data, and they're not early; they're right on time, with an alarm set for Patch Day.

Okay, deep breath, let's get this over with. In the grand act of digital self-sabotage, we've littered this site with cookies. Yep, we did that. Why? So your highness can have a 'premium' experience or whatever. These traitorous cookies hide in your browser, eagerly waiting to welcome you back like a guilty dog that's just chewed your favorite shoe. And, if that's not enough, they also tattle on which parts of our sad little corner of the web you obsess over. Feels dirty, doesn't it?
