The loss of net neutrality may also be annoying and distracting, and
may be harder to fix than with a patch.
The script should not show up again after being cicked away, seems
it has a expiration and shows up again. from looking at
https://github.com/fightforthefuture/battleforthenet-widget
it seems theres a viewCookieExpires parameter, to control the
redisplay.

We don't need yet another daily reminder of how completely shitty the current US administration is. For the record, yes, I did contact my non-representatives, but not because a popup told me to. I would prefer it if the site did not involve politics. I implemented a client side solution using an ad blocker, so consider this patch dropped.
