My current process for "modal asking any consent when I just jumped in the page and don’t have any certainty there is something there I am looking for" is

- does reader view toggle works? if yes, consult, end here

- am I really looking for some information that might be there? if "no I just clicked a link from somewhere on the internet", then end here

- still here? Hey, what about looking at the DOM, if the information looked for is not a simple small segment of text, there are good chances a few CSS/HTML tweak will reveal this. Got it? end here, though you might consider to automate this process with Greasemonkey if this domain often fall in your research.

- no luck so far? It’s ok, you know Internet is vast, there are plenty of other page to visit. WTF are you doing here anyway, don’t you have a job, hobbies and people to cherish? And what about a small walk, you look like you need some fresh air, you know?
