Pawoo is a mastodon server run by the same company that owns pixiv. They’re using the default mastodon description but have also deliberately added tracking because they’re a company that doesn’t care about privacy.
I dont really know what point this post is trying to make. There are other mastodon servers you can join that wont track your activity.
They could use Plausible Analytics instead.
Or, you know, someone using a generic template missed a link.
But hey, it’s probably a conspiracy. Because it’s always a conspiracy.
If you are advertising yourself as a privacy respecting website, you can’t “forget” to disable tracking. It says a lot about your competence and credibility if you do.
Incompetence is not the same as malevolence. That’s my point.
Yes, it highlights a serious credibility gap. Just … it’s not a conspiracy, likely. It’s mere stupidity.
