Unfortunately, many of them are horrible when it comes to preserving your privacy.

What is “Browser fingerprinting”?

It is a method of tracking web browsers by the configuration and information they make visible to websites, rather than traditional methods such as IP addresses and unique cookies.

When you load a web page, you will automatically broadcast certain information about your browser to the website you are visiting.

It may look for what types of fonts you have installed, the language you’ve set, the add-ons you’ve installed.

It shows a lot of information that most of us didn't know was being sent to website owners and big-tech.

@avlcharlie Awesome! Back to basics! :D

I've been on an advertising boycott since January.
What does that mean?

Full adblock and vpn on the web. If you throw me the permissions thing on a website I go away.

No mainstream media.
No cable, no OTA, no YouTube, no streaming service, only my collection of 6000 tv episodes, 300 movies and gigs of music. Updated via BitTorrent.

It's weirdly liberating and also feels rebellious.

OMG! The latest video from Louis Rossmann is crazy. And worth watching!
Netflix is going to be absolutely screwing its users by watching their every move on the platform. Using generative AI ads means their data collection on the users (even on paid plans) will be so intrusive.

#Netflix ..... more like #StopFlix
