If you use #Bluesky be sure to install a tracker blocker.

Yeah super tracker free

Some other comments here about the duckduckgo browser for iPhone. That might be an option?
Anyone know anything about this?

Also, don't be fooled by deck-blue. There are way more trackers there as well.

What about thr duckduckgo browser as an iPhone alternative?
-
@stux @MagentaRocks @BlurryBitsPhoto
Right?! Leave it there for a while and it will block hundreds.
-
@mastodonmigration @MagentaRocks @BlurryBitsPhoto I wonder if this has to do with feed loading via external sources maybe..

@mastodonmigration @mrose @herhandsmyhands except with Brave, you're supporting a creator who is a bigot

Good reason not to use Brave then.

@mastodonmigration @mrose @herhandsmyhands sorry, FireFox is NOT a privacy-respecting browser!
This team rips all the tracking and adware to distribute the browser FireFox was SUPPOSED to be
(Desktop only tho)

Thanks for the recommendation

@mastodonmigration It's not real. It resolves to 0.0.0.0 and ::, which is the wildcard address. It's a misconfiguration left in the production version from the development version. In any case, it's not a real site, and resolves to no server.

@mastodonmigration to these 'oh it's just analytics' types -
User behaviour is a fucking gold mine. Stop pretending it isn't.The data collection is equally valuable whether its Doubleclick scraping it, or its bluesky. If anything they are being shrewd with their 'product' and likely to profit more from it.
Yeah, now we dont get to see who the buyers of said analytics are. State actors? Religious Groups? Political interests?
Theres no rational reason for this aggressive tracking on ALL users

On my iPhone I use DuckDuckGo or Startpage. I also have a DNS ad blocker and Proton VPN.
-
@ElisabethK @mastodonmigration @BlurryBitsPhoto Thanks. I've never heard of Startpage. Is it a browser alternative? And what DNS ad blocker do you use? I appreciate the recs!
-
Startpage is located in the Netherlands and is based on the European Union's data protection regulation. I use DNSforge.de as an ad blocker.

Very cool! Thank you!
