Hello, while I use frontends where possible in place of the original websites/apps I do find it interesting that some of them, mostly referring to the Youtube ones still allow you to login normally? I understand this is to bypass blocks and that in theory the frontend still tries to limit what it sends back to Google but in practice how does this work without killing the privacy aspect?

    I’d say it’s one thing and better to be tracked only at account level than to be tracked at traffic level.

    So you know only your history in the site can be used as opposed to any other form of fingerprinting the sites might use at browser, cookies, or ip level.
