In the few short hours since I started using #Threads, #DuckDuckGo has already blocked over 200 data tracking attempts. These include things like "headphone status" and "screen density."
Trackers, trackers and ol' Zucc's roboface galore.

System volume? Lmaooooo wtf
They are clearly deciding if they need to start producing hearing aids
Potentially, and Ive also seen it used for ads. The first time Spotify noticed me mute my system and paused the ad, I became enraged. Its's a step too far. Luckily with external speakers I can just mute at the speaker level instead.
If you're using Spotify on Windows, consider installing a system ad blocker like Adguard for Windows and route Spotify traffic through it. It will strip the ads.
If you're using Spotify on Android, consider installing the app through X-Manager, which will give you an ad-free experience.
This was at work a few years ago. I don't use windows at home. But thank you for providing those recommendations. Hopefully a fellow Lemming will find them useful!
That's like that Black Mirror episode where the people are required to keep their eyes open and focused on the screen for everything
if you're on Android just use xManager
