It's Atrus, not Atrius!

There's also Atreyu from the NeverEnding Story who was trapped inside a book...

To quote Wikipedia, "Myst is a graphic adventure puzzle video game designed by the Miller brothers, Robyn and Rand. It was developed by Cyan, Inc., published by Broderbund, and initially released for the Macintosh personal computer platform in 1993. In the game, players travel via a special book to the island of Myst. There, players solve puzzles, and by doing so, travel to four other worlds, known as Ages, which reveal the backstory of the game's characters." Just some background on what Myst is.

I am going to put this on all my future game apps instead of an "auto" or "accept recommended settings" button 162.158.187.183 02:36, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

In my view this explanation is entirely wrong. In many web sites and apps "Manage Your Preferences" is deliberately confusing or non-functional because the real purpose of the site or app is to install spyware (or other malware) or otherwise compromise users privacy or personal information. The explanation makes this vile behavior appear accidental or even benign. It is not. 173.245.54.87 03:30, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

You want to say, there are pages out there trying to install malware on my computer, but I can stop them by saying "I do not agree"? I am pretty sure it is just about cookies. Do you consider cookies to be malware? --Lupo (talk) 06:18, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
