You literally can’t use the internet without accepting to be tracked. Dystopian.

uBlock Origin and JShelter disagree.

Additionally one could improve that further by using a VPN

If you wanna be extreme you could also just use the Tor Browser

Except sites deliberately break themselves if they can’t harvest your data. You can’t even browse reddit on Tor anymore.

Even merely using Fennec on my phone, I encounter shopping sites where I actually plan to spend money refuse to work because they can’t recognize “my device.” Or they refuse to sell me products where I live if I’m using a VPN. Creepy-ass behavior.

I suppose the only way out is through, and we should simply refuse to use sites that are designed in such a way, but it feels like a losing battle.

lol advance auto parts (one of the three major auto parts stores in the us) won't let u use their site with a VPN. so I just use the other two lol. like I can understand a government website blocking VPN traffic. but auto parts store?

What do you consider the other two big ones? Auto Zone and NAPA?

Just curious because there are so many auto parts stores where I live

auto one and O'Reilly

forgot that Napa even exits lol

I forgot about O’Reilly!

O o o o’reillyyyyyyyyyyyyy
