We Value Your Privacy

A bald-faced lie and a proper crock of shit. And yet these

sites persist in coercing their followers to voluntarily throw in the blanket and

give up what little privacy remains.

When you visit TheAtlantic.com, The

Atlantic and our partners use cookies and other methods to process your

personal data in order to customize content and your site experience, provide

social media features, analyze our traffic, and personalize advertising on both

our family of websites and our partners' platforms.

Doesn’t sound much like valuing my privacy unless

they mean it in the dictionary definition: “fix or determine the value of;

assign a value to.”

Bloody hell, I reckon that’s it.

Please click "I Accept"

to accept this use of your data. Alternatively, you may select "Set My

Preferences" to accept (or reject) specific categories of data processing.

process your personal data - or to update your preferences at any time - please
