Your consistent advice in your post history is don't ever use any extensions besides uBlock Origin because of fingerprinting and "privacy"
But what if I want actually use the web instead of just blocking ads. Sponsorblock, TamperMonkey, 1Password, CamelCamelCamel, etc are all useful extensions as well that make browsing the web specifically for me better.
There are so many fingerprinting techniques that it seems pointless to have a detrimental experience generally instead of using a sandboxed computer for specific dangerous activities.
I'll continue to use Ad Nauseum, despite your recommendations against it, because I'd rather have a known worthless profile than a worthless browser.
>I also wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a way to filter out those "clicks" anyway from the ad provider's side.
Theres no evidence supporting this, but Go
Read the rest
ogle blocking it from the Chrome store is strong evidence that filtering out those clicks is actually difficult
Edit: Also its a moot point as extensions can't be used for fingerprinting if you just don't use Chrome https://github.com/z0ccc/extension-fingerprints#extension-fi... . I assume any activity I do in Chrome is sent back to Google (or Microsoft or Brave) regardless of plugins installed.
