And yet the normie still has nothing to hide…

Adult People accepting these material conditions disgust me.

But as society we got what we deserve, get fucked by daddy and asking for seconds because convenience and you can’t expect a peasant to have any agency

These statements appear to be insulting to them?

However, clearly politely explaining shit to them doesn’t work so I am just shit posting until I am dead or we hit critical mass of freedom enjoyers which ever one comes first.

@misk I think your federation software is broken. In Mastodon, the urls in your posts just lead back to themselves every time, not out to an external article.

I’m not sure if you’ll get this reply @mighty_orbot@retro.pizza, but here’s the link visible from Lemmy itself: https://tuta.com/blog/digital-fingerprinting-worse-than-cookies.

Your method of accessing this Lemmy community seems not to be working on your side somehow. You might try a different app - I’ve never used Mastodon so I don’t know what might work.

@OpenStars That was my point. I can open the post on its own server and see it as intended. But the federation part of the Lemmy (?) software is clearly not generating the right data.

@mighty_orbot@retro.pizza

What I mean is, the link in a Lemmy community when viewed from a Lemmy instance works just fine. So it’s not broken at that level.

I can’t speak to how it comes across to Mastodon, or your particular method of access to that, as you showed in your screenshot. In general, instances running the Mbin software seem to work better to access both Lemmy and Mastodon, but overall communication between Mastodon and Lemmy seems not perfect, as you said.

What is it like, reading Lemmy on Mastodon? Is it like one post with many replies? Or do they nest like in Lemmy?

@mighty_orbot @misk I’m using Friendica. From here, the links are normal. As it’s also not Lemmy, I guess it’s a Mastodon-specific (or even instance-specific) problem.

It’s all Fediverse. You can follow things on lemmy on mastodon and vice versa and so on.

I’m aware but the degree of compatibility differs. Lemmy to Mastodon is pretty smooth but subOP is using some different microblogging platform it seems.

Unlock Origin, Ghostery, and what else? Scriptmonkey maybe?

They’ll stop it.

Ooooh, no they won’t stop this. It’s the workaround for tracking with all the things you just mentioned.

You have to either mask the fingerprint like how Brave does, or spoof the headers and block JS to make the fingerprint useless.

Nope. Try Creep.js. It is real creepy.

Daily plug for Cromite, which is explicity built for anti-fingerprinting (through not just blocking, but spoofing and stripping systems out) and de-Googling:

You’d THINK the article would link to a source about the fingerprinting in question instead of 90% filler slop and ads for their own service… Anyone got a link?

What is it you’re looking for? Do you want to know what kinds of information is used for fingerprinting?

If so, check out coveryourtracks.eff.org and amiunique.org.

I’m aware of fingerprinting techniques, thank you. The article is claiming that Google will start using some of those and I’m looking for the source for that claim, hopefully with specifics about which techniques are involved. Confusingly, the article does not appear to provide such a source.
