How to: Utiq Tracking sperren (Tracking via IP & Telefonnummer)

Ich bin kein großer Fan davon, im Internet ge’tracked zu werden. Bisher dachte ich, Cookies löschen und Pi-Hole wären schon eine recht gute Lösung. — Dass aber noch direkt am Telefonanbieter auch noch ein Unternehmen steckt und cookieless track’ed, hat mich dann doch sehr überrascht.

"Pay or Okay user study. The law requires that users have a “genuine or free choice”. To find out if this right is respected, noyb has commissioned an academic study about user choices. Even though participants did not need to make any real payments during the study, the results are still clear:

- When asked openly, only about 2 out 10 people agree with companies collecting and analysing their data.
- However, when they face “pay” and a “consent” option, about 9 out of 10 people chose “consent”. The high consent rate seems to be caused by the lack of a reasonable alternative.
- Finally, when there’s a “pay”, a “consent” and a “advertising, but no tracking” option, most users switch to the latter. 7 out of 10 people then choose the “advertising, but no tracking” option.

This shows that the “third option” (as suggested by the EDPB) is supported by objective evidence: Users accept funding of websites via advertising – but not online tracking.

No difference between different sites. The study also shows that users do not behave differently depending on whether they are on large social networks, journalistic pages or other websites. Therefore, there is no factual basis to treat these websites differently and, e.g., create different Pay or Okay guidelines for media websites than for social media.

“Privacy fee” vs “paying for a service”. With Pay or Okay, users are required to pay a privacy fee if they want to retain their right to online privacy. While website providers can, of course, ask for payment in exchange for access to content or a service they provide (like Netflix for TV shows or Spotify for music), Pay or Okay systems try to charge users for their data protection rights without compensation. Unfortunately, even the French Data Protection Authority confuses this, referencing a survey in a bid to support Pay or Okay."

Yesterday I was surprised that my blog post about IP tracking vs "conspiracy" my-phone-is-spying gets low but constant visits. - I reviewed it, corrected a couple of spelling mistakes and added some details.

After all, I'm just happy that I wrote this blog post. I often simply use the blog to "offload" a thought process out of my brain. No matter if someone reads it.
