We're approaching the point for a business model that's just a bank of dummy accounts for registering for website viewing.
Just a reminder to everyone—since I have not yet seen this posted on the thread...
You can circumvent any paywall/registration/advertisement popups by typing the url into this website:
I’ve seen Yahoo Mail and Google advertising work together.
I searched for leading medical institutions doing trans stuff and Yahoo Mail had disgusting ads for specialized panties during one June.
“We’re approaching the point for a business model that’s just a bank of dummy accounts for registering for website viewing.”
Maybe, the huge issues are email verification to register and phone numbers for two factor authentication. And it still would have it’s issues because of human nature. First, most folks just absolutely refuse to give up local in machine email clients like popmail which gives them a direct connection to their device identification. Second would be the out of control greed... Could these 3rd parties even be trusted themselves not to sell the data for a few extra bucks? Look at the dilemma with “safe and private” browsers. They are full of crap and doing the same as everyone else, just slicker and quieter about it. many are streaming everything right to the powers that be in real time. And then what the websites will do is just shut off any registration from those particular 3rd party services, like they are starting to do with TOR browser access now.
The only way to cure this is to just say no and boycott the site in mass until they drop the policies and protocols. Same with hidden 3rd party API scripts. If everyone used NoScript that shows how many scripts are on a particular domain and who they are actually connected to it would scare the hell out of them. Here are the hidden scripts on FOX news, some of these like googletagmanager will add on 10-20 more hidden trackers when allowed. I have hit some websites that had 75 or more hidden trackers, fingerprinters, and realtime cross server connections.

Now what might be extremely useful would be a boycott list with the proof and reasons why. But will anyone actually do it? No... Their addictions are going to drag us all down with them instead.
