@Printdevil@dice.camp When you connect to their website, it downloads some JavaScript and says "verifying the device", which I take to be a lying, weasel way of saying, "fingerprinting your web browser". I tried disabling that JS but then the site does not load. FireFox has some fingerprinting protection built-in but it's clearly not enough in this case. I need to do some research. But it shouldn't be up to tech-savvy users to figure out a workaround, it should just be illegal.

    @strangequark@dice.camp Even if it is illegal they'll just whinge till it's allowed because "everyone else does it and we're at a competitive disadvantage, won't you think of the shareholders"

    @strangequark@dice.camp @Printdevil@dice.camp I wonder whether Firefox containers would be able to circumvent this? Are they of any use against fingerprinting?
