  • I am inclined to agree with that sentiment.

    However I don’t think thats the full story, there are plenty report of this happening on librewolf but I could not find any for firefox with fingerprint protection enabled, neither did i find any for tor (though sites not working on tor is expected and may just not get reported)

    Its seems to me that librewolf has a very unique custom implementation of anti-fingerprinting that is not used elsewhere, ironically that means it could be used as an identifier of its own.

    In the larger context this also isn’t just about one website. Claude isn’t trying to obtain any fingerprints and simply expects time to progress.

    Plenty of other smaller sites that we don’t know might be affected.

    I think they are neglecting a real issue because the bug report about it happens, by coincidence, be an llm site.












  • annything but google is an improvement but none deserve a recommendation.

    ddg is just bing with privacy features but still cozy with microsoft and allows some of their trackers.

    Bing itself, does not need introducing as not being a good alternative.

    Startpage is to google what ddg is to bing.

    Searxng… being open source so you can check yourself if it doesn’t have trackers might be an improvement but if you are not self hosting it can you trust who is not to run custom snoopers? And if you do self host it… its still obtaining results from google and bing your as anonymous as the server ip.
