The absolute degradation of the site is appalling. And most of the comments read like they're written by children, because I'm assuming most of them are.

I can only get tech help from YouTube or ugh stack overflow now. Maybe 4chan if I'm desperate. permalink fedilink source parent [–] sacredfire@programming.dev 1 point 1 year ago That there are so many ways to store data on a browser (including exploits) and that they expose so much information about your physical device is a big part of the problem. Even barring that, there are additional ways they can fingerprint a user. While any one thing might not be telling, when you take all of them in combination, it gets frighteningly accurate how easy it is for them to know exactly who you are. permalink fedilink source parent
