On A privacy research focused Hackaton, my team lead got up, and said:
Our group is going to look at porn sites privacy issues! and @magicMirror is going to lead that effort!

And went on to say Porn+@magicMirror in every sentence. Very loudly.

fukin 🤡.

Luckily you had done years of research beforehand 🥸

@electrineer
Well - Belive it, or Not 😉.

I Spent most of the hackaton going through the Ad campain options of various "monitization partners" of those sites. Very little porn there.

your team lead is simultaneously the most amazing dude and the biggest asshole ever.

Not an easy status to achieve both those at once.

What happened with it?

@Wisecrack
That guy is "🤡 Savant".

I focused on Android and Ios apps. The results were that the china based ads/social SDKs were the worst for privacy, while most of the Ad aggragators based in europe, and US send everything they can - including your local IP, battery status, and battery percent to thier backends. Identification was always based on the Google Id GUID or similar. But they never sent anything to Apple or Google prohibit explicitly in their TOS. The aggragators were the worst - sending the info to multiple ad providers.

Porn sites like PH, and similar send very little info, but can target specific IP addresses in thier campain settings....

@magicMirror "Porn sites like PH, and similar send very little info, but can target specific IP addresses in thier campain settings...."

Gets printed-email in regular mail, with an invalid return address. In bold letters, vertically centered.

"We know you like big-tittied latino babes! Pay up..or else."

@Wisecrack
No idea which sites you visit... thats more like FB kind of shit.

@magicMirror imagine a cracked out Zuckerberg sending Unabomber style letters, highest balls on psych meds, all sweaty and bug-eyed, furiously stuffing form letter style blackmail threats into pre-printed envelopes. " guys! Guys! I have this great idea for this hot new startup.. "

@Wisecrack
So... Elon Musk, but less intense?

Sound good. But how can we invest?

@magicMirror "Sound good. But how can we invest?"
