Nah, let's just make surveillance capitalism illegal instead. That way, rich companies who can afford any tax you put on them and can bribe governments for loopholes to make sure they never pay what they owe still can't spy on you

Cops treat mass surveillance very seriously. They work hard to get as much of it as possible so they can use it for any reason they want. They treat their job responsibilities, their oath to uphold the constitution, and the rights of the pu

Netgear and companies like them need to be held meaningfully accountable for the harm their shitty products cause others. Until that starts to happen, things like this are just going to get worse.

Iran signed a treaty that let them have a nuclear program but with rules. Iran didn't follow the rules so they got in trouble. New president comes in and agrees to follow rules if it means they won't be in so much trouble anymore

If that's true, it's insane that it worked. It should be obvious to not take orders from twitter. There's a chain of command for a reason and random people on social media are no part of it. Sounds like the opposition forces

True, but randomizing other data points will keep your fingerprint unique which should help prevent associating your activity across sites/sessions.

I'm with you. WebGPU has been used to compromise and fingerprint systems. Firefox (and related forks) are usually able to disable this kind of insecure fluff but it'd be nice if other browsers did as well.

If those "variety of services" are worth anything they should remain popular. There are countless ways to advertise them to people. I'm guessing many devs who were regularly browsing their documentation had ad blockers anyway
