    You are naive believing this solves any issues.

      Using a directional antenna to steal wifi after cracking people’s weak passwords, browsing through Tor, and not permitting javascript to be executed in my browser solve my issues. I am an enjoyer of the cookie dialogue because I am a sadist and love the suffering it induces. /s There will be a lot of bad regulation before we get good regulation on the internet. Our lawmakers are still learning. If “move fast break stuff” is good enough for tech it’s good enough for the guys regulating tech.

          Cheers for the links. In my experience attempting to evade tracking by trying to mitigate these approaches will often get you a "you look like a bot" message from websites (by which they mean, "your HTTP requests do not permit us to track you").
