    Sorry, I was like half asleep. I can’t find it, there was a website I saw shared somewhere on Lemmy that showed you all the info you automatically shared when visiting a website and it pointed out stuff that they collected without even asking for it. The implication is that your device gives websites data involuntarily; the website wasn’t asking for it.

        Funny that it just doesn’t work with JS disabled.

          Disabling js disables breaks fingerprinting, but also breaks a lot of websites

            So funny that a site about tracking needs more tracking to work.
