I think that's one thing people don't account for. once most content is behind paywalls you leave much more of a trace than on the ad-ridden web now
- click170 11y agoI don't disagree but I think an important distinction is that when you provide your credit card there is an expectation that they will be able to track you based on that. A big problem with ad tracking these days is that its entirely out-of-site-out-of-mind, nontechy people don't expect to be tracked across the internet as much as when they buy something online with a credit card.
