Show HN: I made a tool that prevents websites from tracking you (github.com) 31 points by sudo_cowsay 2mo ago ↗ HN I know we are very wary of AI slop but disclaimer: AI was used. I don't think that it is slop though and it was mostly used for formatting.
[–] ungreased0675 2mo ago ↗ I would like to feed garbage to trackers, not block them. With LLMs it seems like I should be able to feed infinite garbage to trackers, which if done at scale would devalue entire datasets. [–] sudo_cowsay 2mo ago ↗ I have never thought it that way. I think that's a wonderful idea! Have you ever tried making a tool that feeds false data to the trackers? [–] newb1234 2mo ago ↗ Doesn't that exist already? I can't remember the name though.
