The World Needs Data Collection Protection!

Last night before bed, I cleared my browser history, checked my cookie and popup blocker to “on”, set my private VPN to “Strict Blocking”, and set my ipad to airplane mode.

It’s apparent now, that the “clear browser button is just a dummy switch, that just pretends to clear your browser history. It does nothing!

The minute I turned on my ipad this morning, I saw 10 pages of trackers in my web browsing history. Over 250!

I checked my VPN settings and saw a notice from my Disconnect VPN app, saying Apple allows itself and ALL apps to bypass any VPN settings.

But most of these weren’t apps. They were websites. A handful I visit, like universadon, at the top of the list. But the majority weren’t even websites I visit.

Disconnect has blocked 37,000 trackers since I last reset the app. Who knows how many got through.

Data collection is getting ridiculous!

Why the #DigitalServicesAct #DSA is very much needed.

Example of #uBlock hard at work blocking all the crap on https://twitter.com vs completely silent on http://mastodon.social
