one must appreciate the vision and legislation that’s enforced that particular phrasing. it becomes so much more starker – how cavalierly your data is treated.
That many partners is guaranteed to produce some sort of infection.
A GDPR infection on the wallet, I’d hope.
Is it ok to slut shame a website for having too many partners?
Is it okay for a salesman to jump into your bed along with their 874 partners in exchange for selling you a newspaper?
(NOTE: Ads DON’T HAVE TO be targeted. You can show ads and not track the user.)Or (being devil’s advocate here): just don’t be a fucking slut. Have like 3 partners and have ypur website pick the best offer dynamically, it’s not that hard. In the end they all use AdSense, so they don’t even need to give data to the other 873 or even Google itself - as you said ads don’t have to be targeted. Although it’s not as if it won’t get there anyway.
okay i agree.
“you have to disable adblock to read the article”
Sure, turned it off.
“you also need to sign in to read it”
Okay, here’s my email.
“seems like this article isn’t available for free, would you want to subscribe?”
874 partners
Man these polycules are getting crazy
“What’s the password?”
“Oooooorgy.”
“What’s the safe word?”
“Adblock”
Horny MILFs would like to know your location.
Some partners do not ask for your consent to process your data and rely on their legitimate business interest.
Sounds a whole hell of a lot like rape language to me
Same thing when a website wants me to disable my adblocker to read further…toodeloo, my attention span don’t reach that far.
Is there a way to spoof this personal information randomly?
I mean, denying them my cookies and browsing history and shit defends me from that one site, but salting the earth and poisoning the well with weaponized false data must surely weaken the data miners, and help protect others if done on a broad scale.
I’m no longer content with defending fortress Firefox, I want to go on the offensive, get my boots muddy, and put some safety pins up under some fingernails
This isn’t random but does poison the well by clicking on every link the ad blocker sees.
I don’t use it myself but I’ve heard great things.
Dark Patterns™
Librewolf (Firefox fork with better privacy) + uBlock Origin (comes pre-installed) + “AdGuard – Cookie Notices” filter enabled, plus any of the others you like.
Then bask in the internet without any annoyances, popups, or ads.
Ususally just turning off javascript using ublock makes these notices go away. And if turning off javascript breaks the website… well then I guess whatever I was trying to read wasn’t really worth my time anyway.
Wasn’t euronews bought up by one of Orbans buddies?
Yep. Watch out it may turn soft on Russia abd its cronies.
No I do not want to join your high three digit polycule.
