Only 17203? I feel like that’s low
Oh god, uBlock or privacy badger needs to do this
While funny, the whole idea of tracking your data enough to give you a wrapped kind of goes completely against everything these extensions are supposed to do.
My suggested alternative is you click the wrapped button and it just says:
“Fucked if I know! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯”
But it does say right on that page:
Take note that the network request logger in uBO is a forward-looking logger: this means only future requests can be logged.
In the spirit of efficiency, uBO will log entries IF AND ONLY IF the logger is opened. Otherwise, if the logger is not opened, no CPU/memory resources are consumed by uBO for logging purpose.
Or it could just be made up static data
Well. uBlock does track total blocks
It could keep a local count, wouldn’t need to communicate it out. It basically already shows you how many things are getting blocked, it would just be a funny end of year easter egg
Yeah a local record of blocked ads would be trivial to save and no need to upload.
“who cares, fuck em”
https://github.com/dhowe/AdNauseam is the closest to this that I know of
That would legit get me to pay them or donate or something. Such a hilarious idea.
I totally want a uBO version of that
You clicked “Accept all” ONCE in a real hurry, huh?
This used to give me nightmares. Then I learned to love the bomb: Clean out everything each time you close your browser.
And all that’s left is your fully trackable browser fingerprint.
So if I’m identified as unique how bad is that? Is fingerprinting so critical that it makes all my other attempts at privacy pointless, or is it a niche edge-case that you don’t really need to worry about?
Sure, it’s still better to NOT click Accept all once in a hurry.
But my browser does mitigate some of that.
How much does privacy badger help with that
I don’t know but try it: https://abrahamjuliot.github.io/creepjs
I do
Is this that metadata I hear so much about /s
I wonder what the 2025 version will be ;)
