A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It's non negotiable. I'm always going to use every tool I can to block tracking networks.
If they respond by not letting me use the service... that's fine I'll find a competitor. But in my experience that's pretty rare. Usually they're happy to let people use their service even if they can't track some people.
The only real road block I've ever seen is occasionally a service will ask me to prove I'm not a robot. I rarely bother with proof - just close the tab and switch to an alternative that doesn't do that garbage.
