and i'm not signed in
and i have "do not track" enabled

@benofbrown nope, USA sadly. although i might get a eu vpn just for stuff like this...
@trwnh sorry about the multiple favourites but there's no way to favourite it a million times
@trwnh hey while i'm at throwing babies out with bathwater SINCERELY FUCK MOST ANYTHING THAT ALLOWS FOR TRACKING
@calmbit feel free to fave as many times as you wish! 😂
@trwnh block their cookies or clear your cache. They aren't tracking you per se, but their cookie is likely updated every time you visit.
@trwnh I hate it when sites do stuff like this, it just makes me less likely to click on a link to their site in future.
Are you an EU citizen? If so then surely this sort of tracking is illegal under the GDPR now.
