    I’m not sure to what extent this works better than not clicking on anything at all:

    Given that there’s already a quantity of data about me on the internet from before my “privacy adoption”, the brokers already have an idea about me. If i stopped clicking on ads, that idea would remain frozen in time with my preferences from that time.

    If I started clicling on everything to poison that profile, couldn’t the brokers just filter the period when i started clickning everything? In that case, their profile of me would again remain the same they had when I stopped clicking at all, am I right on this?




  • It all comes to how anonymous you are on the net. I’d say having a mainstream social media account is right now a high risk if you live in the US, specially considering that Kethamine Karen owns one one of them.

    This to say that deanonymizing you might be cheaper than you think, making it more likely than we all expect. If you want to keep using tnose socials, I’d start by deleting my accounts and creating new ones using new data (such as disposable mails or aliases that forward to your real email)

    Of course, a trusted vpn is a must in these cases. And there is a lot you should be doing on top of all this.

    Right now, if you want to keep your anti-trump line, be prepared to be treated as an enemy, so consider the deanonymation a highly likely possibility.
