You can use it for privacy, by ruining the tracking data.

  No it won't. Clicking on random ads doesn't increase privacy. It just changes what the advertiser thinks of your interests. To load an ad, you have to allow trackers. If you allow a tracker, you might as well allow the ad instead of hiding it. AdNauseam just hides it.

    > It just changes what the advertiser thinks of your interests. How is this not increasing privacy? The point is to keep my real interests private from creepy marketing departments.

      > The point is to keep my real interests private from creepy marketing departments. Which is why you block all ads? Companies don't care about 'real interests'. They see the things you click on and show you more ads based on it. They earn money. That's it. The marketing department knows the sites you visit because it has to serve the ad so this thing can click on it. Use uBlock Origin.
