> makes it hard to figure out how users use a website Isn't that the whole point? A user with the no tracking filters turned on in uBO is intentionally trying to opt out. I don't have much sympathy for site owners unless they also offer a first party opt-out option (which I've never seen so far even given the cookie banners). Site owners are no more entitled to track than a site user is to block even first party trackers. (Also wouldn't a site owner be able to use server logs anyways?) As for defaults, I think when it comes to the point that someone is installing uBO specifically, they're usually sophiscated enough to configure filters. Most of the people I know (even those in tech) don't use any form of adblock or tracking blocking. (I don't know how they can manage to always be vigilant and avoid all the dark patterns, but to each their own.)
