It was certainly obvious to me, if I recall correctly.
The idea of asking sites not to track is just so pathetic. If you don't want to be tracked, you do whatever it takes to not be tracked. For example, I'm fine with everything about Mirimir being tracked, correlated, etc. But Mirimir is thoroughly compartmentalized from my meatspace stuff, and from other personas. And it's not really that hard. For most people, it would just mean running multiple VMs that connect via different VPNs.

- mirimir 8y agoFair enough. But that doesn't seem to have worked in the US. Maybe in California, I admit. And maybe there's still hope.
- mthoms 8y agoI'll be sure to tell my 69 year old father to "keep his meatspace stuff compartmentalized" and just go ahead and subscribe to several "different VPNs" so that he'll be able to fire up "multiple VM's" when he doesn't want to be tracked. Easy right? Piece of cake. Give me a break.
- mirimir 8y agoWell, he's younger than I am ;) Seriously, running VirtualBox VMs is easier than editing Word documents.
