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 :)

[email protected] : How well do sites like Blacklight work for checking if sites use trackers? (lemmy.world)

https://themarkup.org/blacklight, I put in a few sites, including a full Reddit post URL and it reported 0 trackers. Does this site work well, are there other sites for seeing trackers on websites that work well?

When looking at Fox, CNN or NY times, the cookie count looks realistic, but nothing else does. I refuse to believe these sites don’t use any other methods.
