Day 2/10: Stop AI Scanners Before They Map Your Site
AI bots don’t need to break in — they just watch you first.

• Hide test pages + old folders
• Make error pages boring
• Use headers that limit what’s visible

Less exposure = fewer attacks.

There should be a fork for Firefox-based browsers of this, in my opinion. And then into LibreWolf it goes.

Mozilla's blog discusses the transition to Manifest V3 for Firefox ad blockers. This change impacts how extensions function, aiming to enhance performance and security. Users may notice differences in ad-blocking capabilities and overall browser experience. The update is part of ongoing efforts to improve web standards and user privacy. #Firefox #ManifestV3 #AdBlockers #WebPrivacy

Just switched from BRAVE to VIVALDI for my browser. I like it so far! But for something that's meant to be low on bloat it took me a bit to arrange all the panels and tab menus to be minimal/non-distracting. I DO really love the translation button being right there, sure that will come in handy, especially as Mastodon tends to show me so many international posts (which is something I really love and don't wanna just scroll by)

Tried out Zen as well this morning, but I can NOT hang with the tabs being on the left side. And can't use my password manager because it's only available for chromium browsers, unfortunately.

This weekend's spur of the moment tech project to avoid doing my annual taxes was to configure @floccus so that I can privately sync my bookmarks across my browsers and devices using WebDav.

The bookmarks were loosely sync'd so there was just minor additions and duplication. This went surprisingly well. More order to the bookmark chaos and I'm slimming down.

#floccus #privacy #webprivacy

thinking about this some more and trying to come up with a number for how much #privacy tools are costing content creators...what's the highest value I can realistically get?

If I install privacy tools to protect myself from surveillance ads, should I spend an extra $20/month on content to make up for it?

@roy I agree.

One of the hardest #webPrivacy problems imho is avoiding tracking on YouTube while still having an account on other Google sites.

The good news is Firefox has a feature called "Multi-Account Containers" that can make YouTube tabs and tabs for other Google sites (mostly) separate for tracking purposes.

The bad news is that there's still no one "YouTube Container" extension the way that there's a "Facebook Container." More steps are required but it works: https://blog.zgp.org/youtube-cleanup/
