The privacy on that site was horrible, and I stoped de-selecting vendors who want permission to track me after two minutes.

But I wanted to ask you: are there any biologics based on this discovery in phase I or even II at this point? Any odds on one of them making it to III?

Just open the page in a private window at that point, and click the "yeah sure track everything bro" button.

"Private browsing" is for not letting your mom see your porno history on the family computer, it does fuck all for you being tracked online.

It still knows your IP and browser fingerprinting still works, they still know who you are and what sites you visit.

Nope! This research is all done in rodents, to my knowledge. I'm always like "wow what a cool and maybe lifesaving discovery!.. for people in like a decade+!" 🙃

(thanks for the book rec!)
