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.

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

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.

Is the web site sharing with them or does it make you share with them so that your CPU does most of the processing and uploading to each advertising lead leech?
This would explain why we need more and more powerful/expensive phones just to keep browsing.

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.

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)

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.

- Quite clear, sir. Only myself and the rest of the English-speaking world is to know.
