- pwython 9y agoFunny enough, the only thing that got wrong was it saying I wasn't logged into HN.
- captaincrowbar 9y agoSame for me. Maybe something changed about HN since the demo was written?
- Capira 9y agothey blacklisted /identicon.ico as goto value in their redirect url. It still works with /y18.gif though.
- piyush_soni 9y agoFor me it shows I'm logged into HN, but shows I'm 'not logged in' many of other things that I'm actually logged in to, like Twitter, Reddit, Facebook and a few others.
- KozmoNau7 9y agoSame here. I use uBlock Origin with all of the tracking filters enabled, plus Privacy Badger.
- piyush_soni 9y agoYup. uBlock Origin + 'Blur', another privacy add-on.
- exhilaration 9y agoNice, nothing came up for me! This is the first time I've seen the positive impact of disabling third party cookies.
- sn9 9y agoWeird. It thinks I'm logged in to Facebook and Flickr, which I'm definitely not (I checked). I am logged in to HN and it didn't catch that.

- Turing_Machine 9y agoNice work. I already had Privacy Badger and had disabled third-party cookies, but it's good to have confirmation that it's working. I'm showing up as not logged into anything, even though I am, in fact, logged into six of those services (including HN, obviously).
- jasonkostempski 9y agoSo disabling 3rd-party cookies is enough to prevent this?
- seanharr11 9y agoThis page suggest that I am logged into "VK", which apparently is the Russian-equivalent of Facebook, but I never heard of it before this. Any reason why that is?
