You should avoid tracking pixels too, or downloading any 3rd party content (like CSS). You can use umatrix for this though.

- talmand 11y agoOk, this is new. Why exactly must we not download CSS?
- throwaway7767 11y ago3rd-party CSS. I.e., if the page includes CSS from an ad network, the network gets the request and can track it. Basically using CSS instead of a 1px tracking bug. One of the many shitty, underhanded methods these companies use to track people without their knowledge or consent. I will shed no tears for these companies when they go bankrupt as people push back against their methods.
- talmand 11y agoI understand now, but the idea of CSS in this is what threw me off. This is valid for any file that the computer makes a request for, if queries are attached to it.
