This comment encouraging me to try out NoScript Security Suite (Firefox) changed my life. googletagmanager is used everywhere!
I first gave NoScript a spin sometime in the mid-2010s. It was an adjustment, to say the least. But once you get used to temporarily allowing a new target domain as a matter of course, holy hell does the whole game come into specific relief.
The Washington Post, for example – which I was a paid subscriber to until it shit the bed – wanted JS from some 25 domains (many of which were Amazon ad related). I also have NoScript on Firefox on my Pixel.
Firefox, uBO and NoScript are the floor for passable internet hygiene to me.
Yeah, it’s getting addicting! I just found so much JS that is totally unneeded to watch Paramount+:
What the hell is all this crap? Man… so much tracking going on. All the
DEFAULTs are blocked and the TV I’m watching still loads perfectly fine. And if you try to go to thestepcattle.comone out of pure curiosity, uBlock warns you against it, yet robots prevent any info on it from appearing in search engines… capitalist bastards…Odd … stepcattle doesn’t sound at all like the sort of thing involving jackboots and train cars.
Shit the bed? Do you mean when Jeff Bezos (amazon cto) bought the place?
