All they're doing is adding rel="me" to featured links on Threads account pages, I don't see what issue this creates tbh.

Speaking of different names for each account, I really like your name and instance combo!

Is the Fediverse (or thrediverse specifically) going to follow the way of the old web? by slyme in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

This already exists as a TamperMonkey script iirc

Think about it, Google Maps is (I think) the biggest collection of map data and information on locations everywhere around the world, yet I don't want an advertising company knowing that I just went to a fast food place.

YouTube is an endless trove of video content that anyone can contribute to, yet I'd much rather not give an advertiser information on every little interest that I have in video.

It's so bad for you, but it's so good.
