When this doesn't work, don't be surprised if they go to a subscription model.

To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical

What I don't get is why the editors didn't realize exactly this before
they went to all pop-ups all the time. What good is ad revenue if
you lose readers ?  You woulda thought that everyone in the world
would understand the obvious.

Advertising money. That's why.

Sad thing is, they don't ever seem to realize that folks will go away if it becomes too big a pain in the @$$.

Although I will check back in X number of days to see if the situation improves,
it is now necessary to stop going to the Times of India site. Basically it has
become unusable. Pop-Ups when you go to the site, sometimes full screen,
which not only must be cleared away to even begin to read the stories,
but which sometimes return even after they have been removed.
Then, when you finally get to an article and try to format it for
use in an e-mail, there usually is at least one more pop-up that
simply cannot be gotten rid of, no matter how many times
you click the little X.
 
No idea why the Times of  India decided to ruin its site this way.
