6 months agoI[t] seems unfortunate if we do this work and […] the result is that Linux works great without having to do the work. …
Man I just don’t get this mindset of “it was hard for me, can’t have it be easy for someone else. Even if it takes additional work, I’ll make sure the next person struggles at least as much as me”. It’s like companies designing a great product and then spending additional develpment time making sure it’s not user repairable, even if it means compromising a good design.
We’d still be in the stone age if everyone thougt like that.
I think this would warrant to get all websites using the facebook pixel on safe browsing lists and AV databases as infected with malware.
Maybe then the pressure on meta would be big enough to stop this shit, if all websites stopped to not use that anymore.
Btw, does anyone know if the localhost tracking is implemented in Whatsapp as well, or just FB and Instagram?
