Absolutely fascinating and promising. Thanks for sharing. Any downvoters clearly didn't read the article.

Incredible, I had no idea that this was a thing. Is there any tutorial out there that you recommend to figure this stuff out? Or may I ask you questions if need be? I wanna start doing this, too!

Come to think of it, is it possible for you to export settings if you wouldn't mind others (especially those who may not be as savvy) riding off of your work? Haha, that could be interesting.

Thanks, though do you have a link for Anomaly? I can't seem to pull up anything.

Hmm, 5 for free, I see; thanks for sharing. Is your provider Proton Mail?

there's often a lot of extra JavaScript that gets called, mostly for tracking

Do you mean that your tool (whatever you use) can selectively block some JS while admitting others on one website?

Well, I recently left uBO for AdNauseam because it actively attacks advertisers by clicking every link (thereby leading to garbage data that messes up their stats), but it can't operate with uBO simultaneously. I'll see what I can do to copy this approach since I can't seem to find a whitelist-only-JS feature in it...

Dang it... I'm starting to feel the appeal now, lol! Hmm.

It's crazy that you're being downvoted. I guess they avoid The Atlantic, etc. as well, despite the helpful info in such articles.

Doing so would break nearly all Internet access. Do you really run a whitelist rather than a blacklist? Is it not tedious to add hundreds of domains to one rather than a few to the other?

Wait, so you literally have hundreds of accounts? How do you manage them all?

For what it's worth, I'm Asian and I had no idea that this was a derogatory word towards Asians and it doesn't bother me.

Thanks, I have more to learn about this topic!
