- gpas 5y agoNever happened to me. Please link some of those sites, I want to test them.
- gpas 5y agoWhat? It's working as intended on Chrome and Chromium based browsers.

- gpas 5y agoI know it's possible to detect incognito testing for specific APIs and browser behaviour, but it's a very brittle method as every new browser version changes something here and there. Anyway I've never encountered a website doing such a thing. Perhaps I'm unknowingly blocking the gatekeeping scripts. Also why prohibit incognito browsing? Cookies?

- jollybean 5y agoPlease let's not kid ourselves. Propaganda will work on most populations. Somewhat better in places where literacy is low, but it can absolutely take hold anywhere. There are useful idiots in every population ready to tattoo themselves with some thing either political, ideological, or even commercial. Populations are not good at context - we take some tiny, possibly insignificant effect, like the utterance of a leader etc. and make all sorts of giant assumptions about it. Sometimes the issue is serious but we still contextualize it. We also tend to ignore major material issues unless someone is creating a fuss and making a narrative about it.
