This entire post is just a massive misunderstanding of how web software works. This is a normal, every day thing, and every single non static (and even sometimes static) site out there does this, or something parallel to this.

They don’t need to make api calls to track you, you’re logged in or at the very least connecting in a way that lets them follow your session.

They don’t even need api calls to fingerprint your browser, they can just throw that fingerprinting into every post when you go to get more content.

Bottom line: This ain’t it, chief.
