Yes, and they try to block the page until you OK it.
I get a kick out of npr.org. The masters of liberal guilt
trips now show me a page about once per week that
gives me a choice: "You can either accept our cookies
and be a decent person, or you can click "no" and we'll
show you a plain page with a handful of links that lead
to some plain-text news stories we'll allow you to see."

They're trying to make it look like a choice, while
punishing anyone who says no and treating them as
misbehaving children.
