Offtopic, it takes me 6 clicks to access google maps (click to “customize” privacy options, select “off” three times, “continue”, and “use web” when asked about downloading an app). I’m on iOS and use safari in private mode. How are others dealing with this? Do you accept the terms or do you do something different?
- metafunctor 5y agoMy Safari doesn't, in private mode, eventually, open the link at all: after customizing the privacy options (all off), Google still tries to bounce me through googleads.g.doubleclick.net, and I have that blocked. The way I “deal with this” is that I have a work Google account which I've signed into. With that in place, the link just opens. Obviously I have clicked "I accept" on a variety of forms saying Google is allowed to track my activity as they see fit. I guess you can run a browser without ad blocking and the link will open after accepting the terms. However, I prefer to still block ads even in private mode for various reasons.
- dest 5y agoI blindly accept the terms in Firefox private mode, consult the content, then close the tab, which deletes all cookies AFAIK.
