Inspired by the discussion in ‘they already have your data’ I was reminded that AdNauseam exists. I rarely see it mentioned in privacy circles but the idea seems attractive to me, I’ve used it before and since it’s based on uBlock Origin it was just as effective in adblocking and the “poisoning” itself unobtrusive. How do you guys feel about it? Are there reasons it should be avoided?

    it just wastes my system’s resource for no gain. imo it’s sufficient to have a proper adblock + js/cookie/xhr whitelist + container tabs.

    if you’re really paranoid you can rotate ip address or something similar,
