Why does Odysee have 836 advertising partners?
I switched over since I heard it was more privacy friendly than YouTube and have been using the platform for a while without issues, but this cookie banner just popped up. You can opt-out of things like "Access precise geolocation data" but a lot of other information is still shared by third parties and not opt-outable.
It seems "Reject All" is the correct choice here, but I'm not sure if it is the best choice for browser users who have to constantly log back into their accounts.
You're viewing a single thread.
Be careful... Don't just click "Reject All." There's a category called "Legitimate Interest" that will still be enabled.
It was meant to be a way for websites to collect relevant data for adjusting content to your interests, but it's been so loosely defined in legal requirements that literally any advertiser could pull your personal data through that category and use it however they want. This legal loophole is how websites continue to collect data and build profiles on you without violating the law. And clicking "Reject All" won't disable anything in that category.
As much as it sucks, you still need to review all categories and manually change your advertising settings, then click "save preferences" (or however it's specifically worded) instead of just clicking "Reject All."
Shout out to that time I manually unchecked 100+ legitimate interests only to then hit "Accept All" instead of save đź’€
Working as intended.
Advertiser's love this one trick, i am surprised no one has yet created some JS to swap the buttons around
on_clickOr just skip it entirely, I use the Consent-O-Matic extension which has a surprising amount of features.
Making the internet usable again. Without this and ublock, I might quit the whole thing.
Gotta love dark patterns. Or when you’re about to click reject all, but then a page element conveniently loads in and makes you click accept.
