The opposite is fucking people over lately too. Pure coding jobs are passing people over because they don’t have literally any degree and it’s insane. 10 years of experience but no degree? Pass. Fresh out of a bootcamp and a bachelors in music? You’re hired!
So you’re saying there’s a chance!
Leopards, faces, tale as old as time sadly.
Powered off isn’t enough. Take recent iPhones for example, even when “off” they remain in a low power state, phoning home periodically to report location and see if “lost mode” has been turned on.
Bring a burner, or nothing at all.
This is a large problem with Americans. You don’t even understand what you’re talking about, but it doesn’t stop you from getting mad and blathering on.
Their video player streams, not unlike YouTube. Sending the “the user paused” action can easily be explained by them wanting to tell the server to stop sending data when the client isn’t even attempting to view it.
Look, I get that you’re gung go about privacy, but you’re going to see damn near exactly these types of things with any API. Sometimes it’s nefarious, sure. But the vast majority of it is simply how web based software works.
I mean, just look at the majority of that data. What feed you’re in? You pulled the feed data from their server, they don’t need to gather that for tracing purposes. What media is open? Obviously they can track that when you pull the media info down from their servers. How long that media is? The sizing of the media? When that post was posted?
I’m seeing virtually nothing in there they don’t already have. This is just an API being fed information it needs to run. The fact that it’s all information they can already track is kinda proof of that. Why go to all this trouble tracking the information a second time?
I mean, the current presidential term seems to point to yes, but the answer is actually no.
Though that won’t stop the “why did the dems not break the law like Trump?” trolls trying to sew division.
I honestly don’t think the pope has that kind of power. I’m pretty sure it’s a facade. Think of all the times their actions have been so minimal in any direction while their words swing one way or the other.
99% of that is stuff they already know. What api endpoint is this?
This entire post is just a massive misunderstanding of how web software works. This is a normal, every day thing, and every single non static (and even sometimes static) site out there does this, or something parallel to this.
They don’t need to make api calls to track you, you’re logged in or at the very least connecting in a way that lets them follow your session.
They don’t even need api calls to fingerprint your browser, they can just throw that fingerprinting into every post when you go to get more content.
Bottom line: This ain’t it, chief.
You realize they can track every page you view right? Literally any content you view inherently has to be pulled from their server, and they can track that. Killing off the API endpoints used to do things like vote or post doesn’t somehow turn off their tracking.
I can’t think of a single simul-release anime movie tbh.
