Someone should create a leaderboard of websites sharing data with the most “partners”, this week I saw someone on Mastodon posting a screenshot of a website sharing to 1700+ third-parties.
My faulty memory tells me 9gag has somewhere around 3000 or so. But I worked with a lot of numbers recently so I have no idea how accurate that is.
The most shocking thing about that is that 9gag still exists. How far has it degraded?
You say that like 9gag had a quality site at one point
It had some funny meme and your browser didn’t freeze after scrolling for 5 minutes. That’s already 1 point for 9gag
Edit: this was around 2015. No idea how 9gag looks like now
Incel paradise since all the decent people left
I remember when it didn’t have infinite scroll, and only nine posts per page - that’s where the name came from.
There’s a lot of anti-stuff going around there. Let’s just say that even if it were possible, federation with 9gag is definitely a hard pass from both sides.
If it’s anything like iFunny, the comment section is likely horrific enough to contest 8chan
EW.
Just clicked it and opened their USA page. Racist drivel.
And disabled protections but couldn’t get it to pop up a tracker notice.

That sounds like they’re using Admiral’s sh!tty brokerage and anti-adblock thing, saw one site with over 1500 partners. Most difficult one to block because of how frequently they buy domains for adblock evasion…
One of these days I’m going to just blacklist the IP ranges of their google cloud fleet
I know we shouldn’t abuse the word, but I feel like “slut” is appropriate here.
To continue that analogy, they’re the pimp and you’re the slut. You’re the one getting shared around.
Is kinda funny having pihole and seeing “0 partners” in my Samsung TV
Like the actual string?
Yeah, i think their terms of services are scripted so if they get more or less advertisers based on your country between other things, that way they can redirect the same page to everybody
Oh so that’s how they do it, has to go to the list of things that give you feelings of power
The data broker deletion services all advertise deleting your info from 2-300 agents. Who the fuck are the other several thousand, what are they doing with the data, and how the fuck is any of this legal.
how the fuck is any of this legal.
It’s not!
It is
Why would you even put the number at that point
Laws
Ooooooooohhhh
Makes sense
We should have a challenge of finding the site with most “friends”.
Screenrant offered me 1516 exclusive partners yesterday.
Out of curiosity, what service was this?

I’ll never get why, in a privacy community that doesn’t come up without asking.
The “Blocked since install” stat on uBlockOrigin is always an eye-opener.
Fuck me, 6 million across both browsers and my work PC.
Visit our site as you normally would with the advertising and tracking.
No, i wouldn’t normally visit any site with the advertising and tracking.
At least they mention that they track you. Most talk only about ads.
I do not like them here or there.
I do not like them anywhere.
High-level polyamory.
Cookie bukkake.
Use Chrome enhanced privacy protection now.
That way it’ll just be one of their closest friends, who might coincidentally sell it to the other 755.
Do never use Chrome. Use Firefox based Browsers (Librewolf, Mull)
some websites require Chrome and don’t work with anything else.
and then these college classes I’m taking, my laptop broke so they’re loaning me a campus Chromebook. I’m like okay whatever. Of course just use it for school nothing else.
You could try changing the user agent string in Firefox to make the site think you’re using chrome
There’s Ungoogled-Chromium?
You could just have two browsers installed, basically a necessity for anyone using Firefox on Android.
They don’t include a print dialogue in the Android version of Firefox.
If you even remotely care about your privacy, get off of an ad-company’s monopolistic browser. Firefox + uBlock Origin is the essentials for at least baseline privacy, then go up from there if you so choose.
I’ve seen that on a couple video game news sites and am just fuck it, I won’t read the article then.
- So, it’s maximum security, is that clear?
- Quite clear, sir. Only myself and the rest of the English-speaking world is to know.
pardner
People forget the ad zap tool exists in ublock origin… Zap that dialogue box away.
