> I have Chrome on mobile configured as such that JS and cookies are disabled by default My God, there's two of us! (Though … you're being privacy conscious on Chrome? Come to Firefox. Ignore the pesky "it's funded by Google" problems, nothing to see, nothing to see, the water is fiiiine.) > You might be surprised to learn that normally, this actually works fine I guess I have a different experience there. A huge number of sites just outright crash. (E.g., the HN search.) JavaScript devs, I've learned, do not handle error cases, and the exceptions tend to just propagated out and ruin the rendering. There seems to be some popular framework out there that even just destroys the whole DOM to emit just the error. (I forget the text, but it's the same text, always. Always centered. Flash of page, then crash.) I have a custom extension that fakes the cookie storage for those JS pages that just lies & says "yeah, cookies are enabled" and the blackholes the writes. But it fails for anything that needs a real cookie … like Anubis. I'm empathetic towards where Anubis is coming from though. But the "I passed the challenge" cookie is indistinguishable from a tracker … although probably most people running Anubis are inherently trustworthy by a sort of cultural association so long as Anubis remains non-mainstream. I think I might modify it to have the ability to store cookies for a short time frame (like 1h) in some cases, such as Anubis; that's enough to pass the challenge, but weighed against tracking. I'm usually only blocked by Anubis for something like a blog post, so that should suffice.
