The Evil Genius Of Perfectly Timed Ad Pop-ups

HTTP 402 "Payment Required" has been reserved since 1997 but never actually implemented. It's been sitting there for decades like that gym membership you keep meaning to use. Now someone's finally suggesting we dust it off to nickel-and-dime users one cent per download.

It's like hiring someone on LinkedIn to update your LinkedIn profile to "seeking new opportunities." The circle of JavaScript life is brutal.
