selling cookies: privacy madness: the "short" list of companies that want to know what forbes article a user clicked on (and god knows what else)

everyone hates em…. cookie banners

the much hated by everyone (even Elon (can’t find the tweet)) EU-GDPR created cookie banners slowing down everyone’s browsing X-D https://gdpr.eu/cookies/

it’s “funny” (no actually not and forbes.com is not a site this user is visiting very often, it was this article that the user was interested in: https://www.forbes.com/sites/elizabethhowell1/2022/01/04/spacex-starship-orbital-launch-delayed-further-into-2022/), https://www.space.com/author/elizabeth-howell is actually writing for space.com, so how did that article get into forbes?)

So as soon as a user visits a site that “sells cookies” to Facebook, Amazon, Google and Microsoft, they all know the user with IP 182.231.223.100 wanted to know the launch date of the next Starship launch.

What Facebook will do with that data? Sell it to even more companies.
