    From Europe they’re actually better than the other news sites you list here. Either way, I’m using ad-blocking, DNS filtering, and I do general browsing like this in a separate browser that wipes everything on exit sooo 🤷 saves you from worrying about this stuff or even thinking about it much.

      2 things:

      they’re actually better than the other news sites you list here.

      What you are saying does not make any sense unless you did not click the links to see the amount of trackers in the tests.

      Yet you are using Lemmy instead of Reddit? Which means you kind of understand fully that the tools that you are talking about does not protect you 100% , rather they just reduce the amount of trackers tracking you.

      Also it’s pretty dystopian to support the websites that violates people privacy, instead of using the websites that basically provide the same product with better privacy.

        I in fact DID click the links and change the filters on the tool to test the europe sites. Try it yourself next time.

        And sorry but no, the Guardian, The Verge, and AP news, etc do not provide the same products. I simply choose to accept the reality we live in and deal with it.
