  1. I wanted to test the #browser extension #AdNauseam and was even prepared to temporarily disable #uBlock and #uMatrix for it. However, I couldn't comply with the warning to disable the browser's own #tracking because #Librewolf doesn't offer that option. So, that was the end of that extension. (btw: it's hard to imagine Google would approve of this add-on.)

    But if anyone's curious…

  2. Ich wollte die #Browser Erweiterung #AdNauseam testen und war dafür sogar bereit, kurzzeitig #uBlock und #uMatrix zu deaktivieren. Die Warnung, ich solle das Browser eigene #Tracking ausschalten, konnte ich jedoch nicht erfüllen, weil das bei #Librewolf nicht vorgesehen ist. Somit war die Erweiterung auch schon Geschichte. (btw: schwer vorstellbar, dass Google mit dem Addon einverstanden ist)

    Falls aber jemand neugierig ist…

  3. @kuketzblog wenn man Tracking und Fingerprinting nicht verhindern kann, vielleicht den umgekehrten Weg gehen und mit #Adnauseam die Daten unbrauchbar machen?

  4. Sadly, adnauseam.io/ doesn't seem to work with @thunderbird ; I don't even get an error or a warning about being unable to install the .xpi file.

  5. Giving AdNauseam adnauseam.io a try, as I both hate ads with the white-hot rage of 1000 suns and also like the idea of poisoning their data. I wonder if it works in Thunderbird, too?

  6. @ImmerNurRichtung @kreideland Eine Anekdote: Bei uns war mal meine Schwägerin da und nach einer Weile war sie "aufgebracht" weil sie ihren Blog pflegen wollte - und es nicht ging. Sie hatte ein kleines Minieinkommen mit Adsense-Werbung. Aber Adsense war im Haus geblockt.

    Habe ihre gesagt, sie kann einfach direkt Google als DNS eintragen, hat sich auch gemacht. Wer hat schon sein Surfverhalten zu verbergen. Ich selbst nutze "Adblocker" wie #adnauseam

  8. La oss si du vil være chaotic good og totalt ødelegge #reklame algoritmen din, samt få reklame bransjen til å tape masse penger...

    Da kan du ikkje bare blokkere reklame med #Adnauseam, men den vil også trykke på hver eneste reklame i bakgrunnen for å sabotere reklamebransjens statistikker... 😉

    Why I uninstalled ublock origin, this is WAY better!

  9. This is a brilliant idea. As someone who used to spend a lot of time with ROI-obsessed bean counters controlling, well, every budget on 🌎, hear me out: Make the magic conversion metrics plummet and you kill the main incentive driving companies not only to slurp up everyone’s data, but also to keep you addicted to maximise the chances of you clicking on an ad. Turn Google’s, Meta’s, and X’s own game against them.

  10. In case anyone else was having the same issue...

    Problem: Youtube pages load everything but the video (see example).

    Cause: You have the AdNauseam extension installed.

    Solution: Put "youtube.com/*" on your "Trusted Sites" list, as per the second image. The trailing asterisk is necessary; that makes it affect the entire site, not just the home page.

  11. Adnauseam, el bloqueador de anuncios y troll, hace que youtube deje de funcionar :-(

  12. 🛡️ #AdNauseam is a #privacy-focused browser extension that fights back against advertising surveillance by automatically clicking every blocked ad

    🎯 Built on top of #uBlockOrigin, combining ad blocking with automated click obfuscation to render user tracking and targeting futile

    🔄 Creates an omnivorous click-stream that confuses ad networks' databases, making collected surveillance data meaningless

  13. Sometimes I'm even getting larger 'stacks' of lines from separators between 'promoted' content on #LinkedIn. Thanks to customer filters in #AdNauseam or @ublockorigin these can be blocked. (Too bad I haven't been able to block 'suggested' content, yet).

    Total #enshittification of #BigTech social media.

  14. we have however apparently parked ourselves right next to the local shit-disco. Same beats, same 5 notes, same melodamned vocals.

  15. Do you want to get rid of all the pesky DuckDuckGo ads for Temu and other crap?

    Just chuck this into your own uBlock Origin or AdNauseam filter list:

    ```
    ! Block DuckDuckGo ads.
    duckduckgo.com###links > .results--ads
    ```

    #DuckDuckGo #ads #AdBlock #uBlockOrigin #AdNauseam

  16. @firebreathingduck @libreleah

    That's quite the approach. Besides increased bandwidth usage, seems like a legit approach to jamming the signal:

    "As online advertising becomes ever more ubiquitous and unsanctioned, #AdNauseam works to complete the cycle by automating ad clicks universally and blindly on behalf of its users. Built atop uBlock Origin, AdNauseam quietly clicks on every blocked ad, registering a visit on ad networks' databases. As the collected data gathered shows an omnivorous click-stream, user tracking, targeting and surveillance become futile."

  17. TIL about #vimium vimium.github.io/ - really cool when not having to use the mouse any more for webbrowsing. Together with #adnauseam github.com/dhowe/AdNauseam to block ads makes the experience so much better.
