Anyone have any good information on using ublock origin with tor browser? Does it compromise my anonymity?

      It makes sense for it to have a built in ad-blocker. Any idea why they don’t do that?

            I can totally see how Madaidan can cause fear, uncertainty, and doubt. When I read, for example, his criticisms of Linux, I felt not only that, but also disappointment. You for sure have good reasons to dislike Madaidan and either GraphenOS or the Lemmy GrapheneOS community. But I don’t know them. Could you explain a bit why Madidan and GrapheneOS (or it’s Lemmy community) are problematic? Your answer would help me see what you see :)

                Requesting is not begging, hence the purpose of c/community_requests

                You seem like an angry person replying out of hate. I’m sorry for whatever it is that happened to you to be this way. It doesn’t give you a right to attack, harass and bully people.

                Edit: your behavior is very much like an abuser in real life that gets off on verbally insulting people for your own sick and twisted kicks.

    It makes you a bit distinguishable from the people who don’t use an Ad-Blocker. It won’t be enough to identify you, but it does add to your digital fingerprint.

        Here’s the thing tho, u block might be good for your threat model. Depends what it is. any way if you are surfing clear web you got more serious opsec concerns.

    i would say use it.
    but if you want to blend in perfectly then you should be identical to what most people’s browsing profiles look like.
