So much wasted space on that webpage.
As long as Ublock and Ghostery still work I’m happy.
Well, let’s be smart about this. Privacy is a huge concern and convenience should never outweigh this.
RIP Fakespot
Oh WTF. It’s not like we need stuff like that. I’m sure all these big corporations will look out for us on their own. 🤦
FakeSpot was never your friend. It was a data aggregator that specifically promised to give user data to anybody who bought them out, right before Mozilla bought them out. They processed and sold people’s location and personal profiles.
Before becoming a sellout to Mozilla, the FakeSpot CEO was a sellout to NFTs, describing his company as “crypto enthusiasts and web3 believers”. (He scrubbed this statement after it became unpopular to say.)
