    MMO-Champion Site tracking

    https://themarkup.org/blacklight?url=mmo-champion.com

    Interesting seeing what the website uses and how it allows you to be tracked across the web.

    Surprised? They will label you crazy and paranoid for trying to protect yourself.

    Use an adblocker, helps a bit at least. Not sure what to do about the tracking though, any suggestions?

    Use Firefox and set the security settings so they can't. Not a problem.

    No Script tends to be more annoying than useful tbh. When it starts to block basic site functions it stops being useful to me. But maybe they improved their shit in the past 5 years since I used it last.

    Running pretty well with just Ghostery..

    On phone I just use Opera with the built in blockers and VPN. Works wonders and has a much better user experience than the recently "updated" trashfox.

    No script blocks all scripts. It's kinda in the name.
    Just whitelist the ones you want and keep everything else blocked.

    This isn't really the appropriate forum, so this is closed but a thread can be opened in Suggestions & Feedback if that was the intention.
