maybe i should make a "fair" list of websites that are harmful to the open web, what category of websites should be included?
i'm thinking, in order from "worst" to "still worst but not as bad"
- operating system user agent blocks, since there's no conceivable excuse for those (a Linux or BSD user is just as valid as a Windows one)
- outright blocks of Tor, VPNs, or any other wide reaching IP space that impacts privacy or global availability (for Tor and VPNs, not withstanding sensitive routes)
- using that bastard web attestation API, for whatever purpose
- blocking out users for using ad and content blockers
- using prompt fatigue to force user consent (for marketing, notifications, etc)
- arbitrarily blocking out user agents (if they're lacking a required web feature - the web feature should be checked for, not the UA, but ill dock them less if theres a reason)
anything i'm missing?
