I would contest that. This is the
only site I visit, including the 30+ forums that I am on semi-regularly, that has that a copy-paste intercept mod.
And I totally agree with Pony Potato, this is completely unintuitive hijacking behavior, noone thinks that they to have to proof-read something they just copied. If I'm sending someone a snippet in instant message, I just select, copy, ctrl-v, enter! I don't re-read it.
Also note, as it wasn't clear, that the opt-out procedure has to be done on a
per-browser basis. I have six computers I use regularly, each with a couple browsers, so not all of them are 'opted out' yet (this one, for example, isn't).
Edit: Also, it undoes the 'opt out' if you clear your cookies.
