I don’t have an answer to your question but I tend to agree with what you wrote.
However - is fingerprinting the only thing to worry about on the www? I’d say not.
Disabling javascript by default is a good way to be able to click links without running the risk of getting pwned by some rogue script.
Then I use an addon that shows me all the 3rd party shit the site would’ve wanted to load, and if it looks OK to me I then enable javascript. The addon can remember this if I want to, so I don’t have to do it every time for that particular site.
Esp. with news articles js is often not even required to read the article itself. Or I can see content that becomes invisible when js is enabled.
FWIW, the developers of Tor browser are experts in being anonymous online, and they disable js by default.

- Comment on So Austistici/Inventati just got designated as a "global terrorist organisation" by the Trump administration, what do I do now? 1 week ago:
I guess they’re going to have to change to a non-org domain.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Everything is available at inventati.org!
Since I solely use their aliases on other domains, which are not (yet) blocked, I guess I got lucky for now.
But my will to protest has been awoken. - Comment on 1 week ago:
Thank you for sharing my sentiment.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Yeah. What worries me even more is that one cannot complain; the links on this page, to the actual complaint forms, are invalid.
- Comment on So Austistici/Inventati just got designated as a "global terrorist organisation" by the Trump administration, what do I do now? 1 week ago:
Yes, same result.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Good point.
There’s been some reports on the fediverse during the past days, and personally I’ve been using them for years. Among other things they provide free email accounts for people who ask.

Their website and mailing server has been taken down
FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK it has happened. Only yesterday most DNS services allowed it.
I’ve been relying on autistici.org for years.

- Comment on Has Piefed omitted some instances? 1 week ago:
Piefed the software ≠ your chosen piefed instance
This is obviously configurable and apparently the admin(s) of yourinstance chose to block a few things.
BTW I can barely figure out which comms you’re talking about when you write them like this: AskLemmy.ml and Piracy.dbzer0. Why not just spell them out? !asklemmy@lemmy.ml

- Comment on Would SpaceX continue to be immoral without Musk? 2 weeks ago:
I like how this answers the question perfectly yet indirectly.
- Comment on Would SpaceX continue to be immoral without Musk? 2 weeks ago:
But as I said elsewhere, it doesn’t change my point.
Agreed.
- Comment on Would SpaceX continue to be immoral without Musk? 2 weeks ago:
SpaceX wouldn’t even exist without Musk and is deeply entwined with all his bullshit magical thinking or rather lying.
And as it stands right now their whole business model is deeply immoral, imo. Shooting shit into space, burning fucktons of fossil fuel, all to achieve things that could better be achieved with less effort. E.g. working on proper internet infrastructure in the USA instead of trying to solve the problem for rich people only.
But if you’re asking if it would be a good idea to remove Musk from that company I’d still say yes.
- Comment on Would SpaceX continue to be immoral without Musk? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t like the way @Zwuselmaus attacks a weak point in your comment, but a weak point it is. It’s not actually law (at least concerning USA and UK), yet in principle you are correct, at least in my opinion:
Can a Publicly Listed Company Be Sued for Not Maximizing Profit?
Publicly listed companies are subject to more stringent regulations than private companies due to the fact that they are owned by shareholders who have invested in the company expecting financial returns. In this context, the legal obligations of maximizing profit are more clearly defined, though not as absolute as one might think.
A Quick Search (tm) reveals many similar answers.

This comment from another post:
There’s this story that Mark Hammil tells about being on the set of Star Wars and he mentions to Harrison Ford that their hair should be wet, since it was just wet in the previous scene.
And Ford says something like, “This ain’t that kind of movie, kid. If the audience is talking about our hair, something has already gone wrong.”
The same goes for Reacher, even the books. They’re great, easy and fun to read, but if you start thinking about it like that something has already gone wrong.

Sorry, which show is this? Dirk Gently’s Holistic etc?
I should re-watch it I guess, it’s been a while. (The lady still looks familiar though)
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
I think those two have a lot in common:
- Trump/MAGA devotees since teen years (probably some “political grooming” there from their parents)
- conventionally pretty, and willing to use that
- the same disregard for truth, factuality or even ethics as any old fart
- Comment on How are there people who don't know Alaska and Hawaii are states? 3 weeks ago:
If someone asked a similar question about another country without ever mentioning the country, you would not react like that to that same question.
I read it as an actual question. Because the answer is very different depending on if it’s asked of USians or of people around the globe.
It might be a rhetorical question though, meant to make OP think.

In any case, you have once again proven that american exceptionalism is a big thing in americans’ minds.

Such fun!
They even renamed their channel to Psychedelic Prn Crumpets
I think youtube just wants more people to create accounts, to force more and more views to be tied to IDable users.

They’re doing this on purpose, right? To make people spend more time on their vids, puzzling over them, and also to land on subs/comms like this one.
- Comment on "Digital Signatures" just ask you to type your name into a box now. Am I right in thinking this almost-completely defeats the purpose of a signature? 4 weeks ago:
the other way is literally just an image (of your signature)
I’ve done that a few times, in GIMP (or Photoshop), and was always a little surprised that it seemed to be enough. Maybe I unwittingly “forged” my own signature? That’s legally murky…
- Comment on "Digital Signatures" just ask you to type your name into a box now. Am I right in thinking this almost-completely defeats the purpose of a signature? 4 weeks ago:
Digital signatures are much more than “just typing your name in a box”. The few times I digitally signed a doc I didn’t even have to do that, just click on a big green button.
It’s all connected to how you authenticated before you got to that point.
I think @mentaledge@sopuli.xyz explained it well.
- Comment on Is there a place where I can ask questions specifically about Lemmy? Is here fine? 4 weeks ago:
Hmm. Not all reddit-like fediverse software is Lemmy. Currently I think it’s Piefed, kbin and Lemmy. Although I’m sure “reddit-like” is debatable and there’s more.
- Comment on Why are plug sockets region locked? 1 month ago:
Most modern electronics (as in laptops, game consoles and smartphones) support dual voltage and frequencies but their default plug type is region locked, so if you’ve bought a PS5 in the UK importing it into the US (the default cable is Type G that comes with the packaging when plugging into a TV) unless you swap cable for a Type B plug but it’ll work fine.
And most appliances are designed in such a way that the swapping is extremely easy - no soldering, just unplug the bad one and plug in the good one. And this secondary plug is so effing standardized that you probably already have a suitable cable lying around.
Why is there no unilateral plug type that’s “region free” when discussing plug types found in appliances.
The EU plug is one attempt. I believe that includes the UK.
- Comment on Why are so many new programming languages being developed? 1 month ago:
And now suddenly it seems that a host of new programming languages have appeared
That’s your perception of course, but I think new programming languages have always been appearing. The thing is that the old ones do not necessarily disappear, so there’s a cumulative effect.
I was looking for a graphical representation, but this wikipedia article shows it better imho. I didn’t count, but it doesn’t look to me like the last 2 decades are overpopulated.
