Inspired by the discussion in ‘they already have your data’ I was reminded that AdNauseam exists. I rarely see it mentioned in privacy circles but the idea seems attractive to me, I’ve used it before and since it’s based on uBlock Origin it was just as effective in adblocking and the “poisoning” itself unobtrusive. How do you guys feel about it? Are there reasons it should be avoided?
I’m a big fan, especially because it not only makes my “profile” much harder to identify, it also costs the advertisers more. Anything that harms advertising is a good thing IMO.
Agreed! It blocks ads and malware while costing advertisers a ton. I’d love to see this go more mainstream and see all the panic by costing advertisers money without having people buy anything.
