"Researchers recently caught Meta using an egregious new tracking technique to spy on you. Exploiting a technical loophole, the company was able to have their apps snoop on users’ web browsing. This tracking technique stands out for its flagrant disregard of core security protections built into phones and browsers. The episode is yet another reason to distrust Meta, block web tracking, and end surveillance advertising.

Fortunately, there are steps that you, your browser, and your government can take to fight online tracking."

@[email protected] This is cool but like, I can’t believe anyone on masto still maintains a presence on a surveillance capitalism platform? I mean why are you here? Why have people who explicitly chose to join Fedi to escape this crap STILL using it?
