nostr:npub1sqfnxau480pnvm0t258kdrj5u2u72zwm2kh7tk3qf6lxtqkwvlmqgn5skr I'm so fucking jaded with all disgustingly rampant opt-out only (if even) tracking on the modern web.

nostr:npub1sqfnxau480pnvm0t258kdrj5u2u72zwm2kh7tk3qf6lxtqkwvlmqgn5skr I note also it specifies only that they'll ask for consent on ads. Not data collection or other uses (some of which are much more harmful and questionable anyway.) This may well be the least possible concession and the least useful at that.
