In the few short hours since I started using #Threads, #DuckDuckGo has already blocked over 200 data tracking attempts. These include things like “headphone status” and “screen density.”

    One of the advantages(?) of being old is you remember all the previous times corporations have fucked us over in various ways. The phone company monopoly which turned into mini-monopolies was just one more example unfortunately. At least that one’s over now.

      In the current age we don’t even have to be that old to have been screwed by big corporations more than once. I guess anyone in their 20s would have by now gone through it at least thrice.
