You can say it is not a slippery slope but our rights are eroded when we compromise.
If you need tracking you put the dots on your own print outs. There is no need to have dots on everyone else’s print outs.
- harel 7y agoI do not approve of any printer that watermarks my printouts. There is no two ways about that. Tracking is a side effect of showing us ads. We will be shown ads no matter what because they pay for the services we get for free and the 99% don't mind them. Without tracking on the ad front we'll see random ads, they would be less effective, that industry will ultimately collapse and we will start paying for every single service we use. Again - I do not condone it, but I don't have the will personally to fight it or let it affect me in any way. When i want my actions to be untrackable, I will take steps to make them so. I would however like both the ad world and consumers to reach some sort of middle ground in regards to what is acceptable and what is not. They way things are now are out of balance in favour of advertisers. It should be corrected.
