It also gives a good insight into which sites are built to track you. The Economist, for example, only allows you to view their site with all JavaScript turned on, not just js attached to their domain. Sneaky 000

Cephalopod Empire Appreciator @sinistermrcream.bsky.social · 24/08/2026If you enjoy Kane Pixels brand of Backrooms, you need to watch KenopsiaTV's Stonebridge! It's got the haunting visuals, but has the best sound design I've ever heard on content like this. Unnerving and haunting, it's building a narrative that feels like it could reach the level of Kane. 010
