If control group is selected from people interested in WFH they have incentives to validate the study too. Or if the opportunity is presented as a privilege they might be less engaged to begin with?

I would say the goal of AdNauseam is obfuscating ad profiles. It not necessarily clicks all ads, the rate can be set in the preferences. Personally, I would welcome similar extensions for social media, automated follows/likes/post

Anyone can pull up a piece of data to claim they have consent, you need something like a signature otherwise it is words against each other. There is no way to verify consent with some click through, anyone can click a link in someone else&
