A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

For the cookies, Consent-o-matic could help with that. It doesn't work on all pages, but it speeds things up.
I've always wondered about cookie consent. After arriving at a website, are the cookies in suspended animation until you click 'reject' or 'accept'. It would seem that session cookies can't help but already be on your HDD, however, 3rd party cookies might not be until you click 'accept' or pick and choose which ones you want to keep. I've never really done in depth research on cookies on my HDD. I have 'Strict' and 'Max Protection' settings in Firefox, and I use Cookie AutoDelete set to delete all cookies after 1 sec. This might be an exercise to explore on my network.
