- google234123 5y agoHow is collecting a unique user id a privacy nightmare?
- vlozko 5y ago“User ID also includes your account password…”
- google234123 5y agoThis willl blow your mind: when you sign up on a website they save a hash of your password so that you can login again later! Also, when you post a comment on hacker news, hn saves it on their server! What a privacy nightmare am I right?
- google234123 5y agoThis was too harsh, sorry
- duskwuff 5y agoThat's literally just saying that, if you log in to Fakespot, they'll record some basic information about the user you're logged in as. None of this is unusual or noteworthy.
- bmicraft 5y agoFor what it's worth, their addon want full access to literally any site you visit while reviewmeta only requests access to amazon sites
