AdNauseam quietly clicks on every blocked ad, registering a visit on ad networks’ databases
Do those clicks appear to be coming from me, or from some random fake identity?
False floods of data or not, there are some things I’d rather not have any identifiable contact with at all.
From my understanding, they appear to be coming from you- that’s kinda the point.
It should atleast poison any data they gather about you right? Since you’re not ever going to realistically click on any of these ads, it would now look like anything and everything interests you
That’s the point. You can’t really build an advertising profile if they literally engage with every single thing all the time.
it would now look like anything and everything interests you
That could get you on some interesting lists.
Personally, I’d rather not have any database think I was interested in certain topics, no matter how false that data is.
