Honestly this is my main fear of any kind of single payer system. It’s not that the system can’t work well - but that it is a single target for right wing assholes to destroy for the sole purpose of saying that system is bad because they can destroy it.
No, not really. I just take an opt-in to js approach to the internet. It won’t perfectly hide me from databroker fingerprinting - but that’s hard to do unless you want to just use TOR for your everyday browser experience and that’s too paranoid for me.
I’ve been using ublock origin for the longest time. Set it up in advanced mode and block all 3rd party domains by default. I know it can block individual line items during the js interpretation stage based on matches to plugins like anti-malware scripts. I tend to whitelist some domains I trust on all domains and I’ll even blacklist some domains I don’t ever trust on other domains (like facebook and anything with px in the name).
Ultimately - the more protection you put in place, the more likely you will stand out to fingerprinting. They don’t give a shit about user agent descriptions. They look at things like how does your browser render a semi-transparent pixel when aliased ontop of something else. What HTML5 Canvas features does your browser support. Attempt to run this list of scripts and see which ones fail. All of that helps make a non-unique print of your browser that hints at an identity even without your Windows Device ID.
A few years ago I posted in a reddit advice thread about how I banned my kid from roblox because of that exploitation-by-design and everyone freaked the fuck out at me and told me I was a terrible person.
I used to use former child labor.
I still do, but I used to as well.
Since when is UEFI old? Wtf
