I'm having a strange issue on Orangebloods. It only started this evening.

I am using Firefox for my browser. I have my GPC (Global Privacy Control) enabled, and have had ever since it became an option in Firefox a couple of years ago. My operating system is Windows 10.

Anyway, beginning tonight, every time I click on a thread or even when I just come to Orangebloods I'm seeing the message that Yahoo/Rivals wants me to review my Global Privacy Control preferences They tell me that I'm not getting the best version of the website etc ... if I don't allow personalized ads and don't allow Yahoo to share and sell my personal information. See the attached screenshot etc ...

Of course I click "don't allow" and the message goes away. But then when I click on another thread I get the same **#$ # message popping up. I click "don't allow" and it goes away. I've clicked "don't allow" dozens of times tonight but for whatever reason Yahoo isn't getting the message. If I go to another thread I see this same pop-up message and have to click "don't allow." I'm sure if I clicked "allow" it would probably go away, but I don't want to allow personalized ads and tracking. That's why I have my GPC set up the way I do. The crazy thing is this just started happening tonight, and I haven't changed anything on my end.

Here's the pop-up I'm seeing. As I say, this is pretty maddening.
