@thatbrickster @mametsuko >Your source doesn't prove anything to me.
It clearly proves the unsolicited requests with a screenshot of them.

>they have previously explained what each are for.
Amazing, they actually explain part of their spying, but even then, the amount of unsolicited requests by software that is not spyware is 0.

>your source suggests it applies to their webpages and can be mitigated by not using them as a homepage.
It mentions a mitigation about being blocked by cloudflare, rather than a mitigation to cloudflare.

>unique ID, this has been explained as the least intrusive way to count installs and active users.
It is totally unacceptable to count installs and active users without an explicit opt-in - anything else is spyware.

>it's for their partnership business model
Just because something is a business model doesn't mean it's acceptable, especially when that business model is spying.

>I use their value-added services at no cost
Those are rather freedom-subtracted disservices.

>I will not enshitify my experience for the sake of ideology.
The only software that undergoes "enshittification" is proprietary software, but you use proprietary malware instead of free software?

If avoiding running malware on your computer is an ideology, then I gladly enjoy such ideology.
