Partner started receiving ads in foreign language they don't speak
This is how I know I’m winning at privacy. When my podcasts inject ads that I can’t understand
Yup, isn’t that a result of data poisoning?
Most likely just due to the VPN exiting in other countries, but advertisers are the most prolific trackers, so it is still an indication that they don’t know who I am. Which is good.
Isn’t that still technically a mild form of data poisoning though?
@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted
Are you implying data poisoning is bad?
@delirious_owl
…No. Why? How did I even come across as that?
@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted
The repeated emphasis read to me as potentially that. Like you were trying to get them to admit that was the reason. But, to be fair to you, I'm autistic, so I sometimes misread people's intent.
Ah.
No, what I was trying to do was merely confirm that what I understood to be the definition of “data poisoning” was correct, in that this qualified as an instance thereof.
(And it’s cool. I’m also autistic, so I am intimately familiar with the concept of reading people incorrectly. Lol. x3 )
