Is it ok to slut shame a website for having too many partners?
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?”
One time a game asked me to allow cookies, instead of a “deny all” button I had to deny each partner individually. I was standing there disabling every toggle for about 15 minutes because there were 500+ of them.
Sounds like fandom.com
Even when disabled at a high level, their sub checks are still there and there are hundred of them. Deceptive BS.
That bloody wiki farm is so user-hostile that there’s at least one extension redirecting its traffic to wikis elsewhere.
Hill Climb Racing did that for me. I tried doing what you did the first time, then it kept sending me that every two days, so I just used Rethink DNS with the block trackers and ads blocklist.
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.
We need to stop calling these sites and services “free”. Anything that’s financed by ads, spying and profiling is not free, the user is paying with their attention, integrity and right to privacy. This is not nothing.
Presently, it’s a shady and dishonest practice since the terms of the transaction are rarely transparent to the consumer; in other words, it’s a scam.

It loads fine for me without CSS or javascript.
Why would you ever want to allow the execution of
adobeDatalayer_bridge.js
adobe_analytics_bridge.js
globalstore_bridge.js
?
Good example of third party trash hiding behind first party domain.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.
Wasn’t euronews bought up by one of Orbans buddies?
Yep. Watch out it may turn soft on Russia abd its cronies.
That many partners is guaranteed to produce some sort of infection.
